This bill directs the Iowa Department of Human Services to amend its administrative rules to increase the income eligibility threshold for the state child care assistance program gradually from 150% of the federal poverty level to 200% by 2026. It also allows families to continue receiving child care assistance until their income exceeds 250% of the federal poverty level.
