On our 10th episode of the Childcare Tax Break Breakdown we discuss a potential new bill introduced at the federal level, the Child Care for American Families Act, H.R. 8540. The bill aims to enhance the Employer Child Care Tax Credit, increasing the general percentage for qualified childcare expenditures to 40%. For small businesses with 500 or fewer employees, the bill proposes a 50% credit on expenditures. The bill also sets a cap at 60% of expenditures for rural and low-income areas, incentivizing employers to offer more childcare services. Additionally, the bill suggests increasing the annual cap on qualified expenses to $2 million and the total credit to $1.2 million. Businesses could claim the credit by pooling resources for childcare facilities, encouraging collaboration among small businesses. The bill's potential impact could significantly reduce the cost of childcare benefits programs for employers, making it more accessible and affordable. Greg and Doug highlight the importance of tracking this bill and other similar initiatives across states to support childcare affordability and accessibility.
