SJRES 199 uses the Congressional Review Act to cancel an HHS regulation titled "Restoring Flexibility in the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF)," published in May 2026. If passed, the rule would be overturned entirely, as if it had never been issued.
This affects state agencies that run child care subsidy programs, child care providers accepting CCDF subsidies, and low-income families relying on that assistance.
Overturning the rule would likely force states to revert to prior CCDF rules on eligibility, provider payments, or administrative requirements, changing how the program operates.
