Child Care Tax Benefit Outreach and Assistance Act

This bill creates a new Business Child Care Liaison position within the Internal Revenue Service to help businesses understand and use tax benefits for employee child care. The Liaison would connect businesses with various organizations, provide public education on employer-provided child care options, and issue guidance materials for tax return preparers. Additionally, the role would coordinate with other federal agencies and state governments to reduce information barriers for small businesses and report annually on the progress of child care benefit utilization. The position would be exempt from standard federal appointment rules and would submit annual reports to Congress detailing outreach activities and recommendations for improving access to child care tax incentives.
