Plain-English Summary

The bill would allow businesses and organizations that employ child care workers to claim a tax credit if they increase wages paid to those workers. This tax break is designed to help child care providers earn higher pay, which could make it easier for child care facilities to attract and keep qualified staff. The measure would reduce the federal taxes owed by employers who raise child care worker wages.
