Bill > SB2419

This bill authorizes the Mississippi Office of Workforce Development to establish and manage an employee childcare tuition assistance partnership program, which aims to support employees by helping with the cost of childcare. The bill amends Section 37-153-7 of the Mississippi Code of 1972, which outlines the structure and duties of the Office of Workforce Development and the Mississippi State Workforce Investment Board, a body composed of business, labor, and government representatives that advises the office. The addition of a new provision, marked by "<ins>(j)</ins>", specifically grants the Office of Workforce Development the authority to implement and oversee this new childcare tuition assistance program.
