This legislation, known as the "Daycare Not Detentions Act of 2026," aims to significantly increase funding for critical child care and early education initiatives. It appropriates a total of $70 billion to the Administration for Children and Families within the Department of Health and Human Services. These supplemental funds are designated for programs including the Child Care and Development Block Grant Act, the Child Care Entitlement to States, the Head Start Act, and Preschool Development Grants, with availability through fiscal year 2029. To finance these appropriations, the bill mandates a rescission of $70 billion from unobligated funds. These rescinded funds were originally appropriated by the Secure America Act for U.S. Customs and Border Protection and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The bill effectively reallocates substantial federal resources from immigration enforcement to support child development and early learning programs.
