21st CCLC Funding Update
Last week the White House, Senate leadership, and House leadership announced that they had come to an agreement to increase spending caps for FY2020 and FY2021. The deal passed the House and is expected to pass the Senate and be signed into law by the president. This would replace the mandatory sequester cut in current law. The spending deal paves the way for the Senate to join the House in passing their FY2020 appropriations bills with the new fiscal year scheduled to begin October 1, 2019. |
