Of inquiry requesting the President and directing the Secretary of Health and Human Services to transmit, respectively, certain documents to the House of Representatives relating to the "Defend the Spend" freeze on child care payments to all States, Tribes, and Territories.

HRES 1078 is a procedural resolution requesting the President and Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary to provide specific documents to the House of Representatives. It seeks records related to the December 2025 "Defend the Spend" freeze on child care funding, including communications about the freeze, payment delays, social media posts alleging fraud, and related legal analyses. The resolution specifically targets documents concerning the freeze's impact on States, Tribes, and Territories receiving child care funds under federal programs. The request requires these documents to be submitted within 14 days of the resolution's adoption. This is a congressional oversight measure, not a policy change, focused on transparency around an existing funding freeze.
