What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Supporting Our Military Child Care Workforce Act," requires the Secretary of Defense to report on how the redesign of the child development program's compensation model is being implemented. The report must be submitted to Congress one year after the Act is enacted and annually thereafter until full implementation is achieved. Each report must include the implementation status, the expected timeline for completion, and a list of requirements that have or have not been met. These reports must be broken down by each Armed Force. Additionally, the Secretary is required to publish these reports on a public Department of Defense website.
