Relating to establishing a child-care services waiting list priority for the children of certain child-care workers.
HB 3807 creates a priority for children of child-care workers on local workforce boards' waiting lists for child-care services. Child-care workers whose children receive this priority must continue working in the field until their child is placed in care (one year after the priority date). Local workforce boards must implement this priority, and if a worker leaves before the one-year period, the commission may end child-care services for the child. The law takes effect September 1, 2025.
