Bill > HF133

This bill seeks to amend the income eligibility requirements for state child care assistance in Iowa. Specifically, it would increase the income threshold from 145% of the federal poverty level to 200% of the federal poverty level for families where the members are employed or participating in an approved training or educational program for at least 28 hours per week. The bill also directs the Department of Human Services to amend its administrative rules to provide state child care assistance to families whose gross monthly income does not exceed 200% of the federal poverty level, effective January 1, 2020.
