TFC's Featured Bill of the Week

AB 902 (Grayson) Childcare: electronic signatures



Author: Senator Tim Grayson

Tim Grayson was previously elected to serve in the California Assembly in November 2016 and to represent the 15th Assembly District, which encompassed portions of Contra Costa County. He is the son of a Teamster father and his mother was a public transit worker. He is the first in his family to earn a college degree. In 2010, Grayson was elected to serve on the Concord City Council, winning reelection in 2014 and serving on the Council until his election to the Assembly. He also served as Concord’s Mayor from 2014-2015.

As a co-founder of the Contra Costa Family Justice Center, Grayson has a long and proven history of advocating for victims of domestic violence, human trafficking, and child and elder abuse. Since his election to the Assembly, Grayson has secured $20 million in state funding for Family Justice Centers throughout California to expand services, reach new communities and streamline services for victims of interpersonal violence. In 2018, Governor Brown signed into law a Grayson bill (AB 998) to allow victim support specialists to work collaboratively to help victims of domestic violence and human trafficking.

Championing the beliefs that higher education should be both accessible and affordable, then-Assemblymember Grayson authored laws to ensure that our qualified California students are not denied admission at UC institutions in favor of less qualified out-of-state students (AB 1674) and to require greater transparency from the University of California Office of the President in UC cost reporting (AB 1655). Grayson also introduced legislation to bring $7 billion in funding for new higher education campus construction and repair of existing facilities.

In order to help protect the state against the boom and bust economic cycles of the past decades, Grayson was at the forefront of creating a new budget reserve to complement the constitutionally-capped Rainy Day Fund. Grayson fought to create the new Budget Deficit Savings Account, and helped secure an initial deposit of $1.75 billion, in the hope that we will be able to avoid devastating and debilitating cuts to education and social and government services should a recession strike again.

Former Crystal Stairs CEO and LA County Supervisor Holly J. Mitchell Gives Powerful Statement at Assembly Hearing on Child Care

During the Assembly Budget Subcommittee on Accountability and Oversight hearing on the impacts of the 2026 federal child care funding withholding, Los Angeles County Supervisor Holly Mitchell clearly laid out what is at stake for families, providers, and local governments if the Legislature does not build a plan of action if federal child care funds were frozen.

Drawing on her experience as former Chief Executive Officer of Crystal Stairs, and her time as a State Senator from 2013 to 2020, she emphasized that California already has strong oversight and fraud prevention systems and warned against assuming issues in one state apply to all. Supervisor Mitchell underscored the fiscal instability counties face as federal, state, and local funding sources all come under strain, noting that uncertainty is untenable for child care providers serving both subsidized and private-pay families. She noted that a federal freeze would affect 16,000 families and 10,000 providers through Crystal Stairs alone. She also cautioned that the ripple effects would extend far beyond child care, disrupting access to CalWORKs, housing, and other essential supports, and urged the Legislature to adopt an action plan to prevent long-term economic fallout. Referencing the lasting damage from past Stage 3 cuts, Mitchell warned that failing to act now would once again defer families’ dreams—and ultimately cost the state far more down the line.

Fabulous job, Supervisor Mitchell! We’re so proud of you for powerfully lifting up our field and the families served by community-based organizations.

Child Care in the News

Did You Know?

Child Care Q&A's

NOTE: If you have a question you would like answered or researched, please email.

Question: Does California have an obligation to continue paying child care providers based on per-child enrollment, instead of based on per-child attendance?

Answer: Senate Bill 120 funded payment to child care providers based on a family's certified need (i.e. enrollment) until June 30, 2026, and CCB 25-20E clarified that the state will continue to pay providers based on enrollment until June 30, 2028 in compliance with the Child Care Providers Union bargaining agreement.

Federal Update

Federal Judge Orders ACF to Release CCDF Funds | Updates on CCDF and Federal Proposed Rule Posted to TFC's Webpage

A federal judge has ordered the Administration for Children and Families to release billions of dollars in child care and social service funds after New York and several other states sued the federal government for withholding the money. U.S. District Judge Vernon Broderick ruled that the funds must continue flowing to avoid disruptions to child care, family support, and other safety-net programs. The block remains in place for the duration of the lawsuit until the court reaches a final decision or a higher court changes the order, meaning the funding freeze cannot be enforced for now.

• Government shutdown averted; DHS funding in negotiations

Federal Government Update 

On Tuesday, February 3rd, Congress passed a crucial funding bill that retains the increases to the Child Care Development Block Grant (CCDBG) and Head Start and Early Head Start, as proposed by the Senate Labor, HHS bill over the summer. Specifically:

• $8.8 billion for the Child Care and Development Block Grant, an increase of $85 million above FY25. ($8.746 billion)
• $12.4 billion for Head Start, an increase of $85 million above FY25. ($12.72 billion)

Two programs that were slated for elimination in the original House version maintain level funding:

• $315 million for Preschool Development Grant
• $75 million for Child Care Access Means Parents in School

While these increases are welcome after flat funding in FY25, we remain concerned that they are not as robust as in the past several years and remain nowhere close to fully funding these critical early childhood programs.

Congress must still address funding for the Department of Homeland Security by February 13th. Due to intense advocacy over ICE, Congress separated DHS funding from the rest of the appropriations bills.

As a reminder, since January 1st, 2026, the administration has taken drastic measures that are already having devastating effects on the child care sector:

• Froze child care funding for 5 states: letters were sent to California, Colorado, Minnesota, Illinois, and New York, suspending about $10 billion in funds for CCDF, TANF, and SSBG.
• TEMPORARILY BLOCKED thru 2/6: Trump can't withhold funds from 5 Democratic states yet, judge says | AP News
• Doubled down on “Defend the Spend” policy, requiring all 50 states to provide additional documentation and verification before receiving child care funds. This policy has led to delays in states' access to funding.
• HHS Proposes Major Rollback of Child Care Subsidy Regulations: HHS released a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) to undo key components of the March 2024 CCDF final rule, citing administrative burden and a desire to restore state flexibility. Proposed eliminations include:
• The 7% cap on family co-payments.
• The requirement for states to use grants or contracts for direct service delivery to underserved populations.
• The mandate that child care providers be paid prospectively and based on a child’s authorized enrollment rather than attendance.
• This will undo much of the progress in the sector.

⇒ See item #2 for resources and more information

• Reports are coming out of Ohio, Idaho, Massachusetts, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Washington, Maine, and San Diego, California, that right-wing influencers have been harassing child care programs by showing up to and calling child care programs to try to interview employees and express suspicions of fraud, especially targeting child care entities run by people of Somali descent.
• Establishment of a new Department of Justice division for national fraud enforcement, which will investigate child care and Head Start programs around the country.

We call on federal leaders to immediately restore full child care funding, end intimidation and enforcement tactics that target child care communities, and halt the escalation of armed enforcement in our communities that has already resulted in tragic and preventable loss of life.

Families need stability. Providers need safety. Children deserve care environments free from fear, chaos, and political intimidation. Communities deserve better than reckless endangerment, intimidation, and violence.

Protect Head Start & Early Head Start 

A federal judge granted a preliminary injunction blocking the Trump administration’s attacks on Head Start, halting the Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) ban on diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility, as well as mass office closures and layoffs at the Office of Head Start. These administrative actions had disrupted programs nationwide and hindered their ability to fulfil their mission of providing early education and care to young children from low-income families.
