Bill Summary

STATE FISCAL RECOVERY FUND -- States findings of the House of Representatives and obligates funds from the State Fiscal Recovery Fund for child care infrastructure.

AI Summary

This Resolution acknowledges that the State of Idaho received over $1 billion from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) for its State Fiscal Recovery Fund, a fund established to help states respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic impacts, and that these funds must be committed by the end of 2024 and spent by the end of 2026. Recognizing that Idaho faces significant issues with the availability, affordability, and quality of early learning and child care, particularly due to a shortage of child care centers, the House of Representatives is allocating $49,999,900 from this fund to support projects that expand child care infrastructure, thereby increasing the number of available child care spots for working families.
