A01303 Memo:

NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY
MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF LEGISLATION
submitted in accordance with Assembly Rule III, Sec 1(f)
 
BILL NUMBER: A1303A
 
SPONSOR: Clark
  TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the social services law, in relation to prohibiting requiring parents or caretakers to earn a minimum wage to be eligible for child care assistance   SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1. Amends subdivision 3 of section 410-w to allow social service districts to disallow rules or regulations by the Office of Children and Family Services to have a minimum earnings requirement to receive child care assistance. Section 2. States this act shall take effect immediately.   JUSTIFICATION: In New York Regulations- Title 18. Department of Social Services, Part 415 Child Care Service-, exists rules limiting those who can receive assistance based on whether they are earning the minimum wage. Hundreds of thousands of workers in the gig economy or misclassified and earning less than the minimum wage could be disqualified by this regulation for childcare subsidies. Minimum hours worked requirements leave out New York's most needy workers from childcare subsidies This legislation remedies that situation by eliminating the minimum wage requirements to receive childcare assistance in the form of subsidies.   PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: 2022: A.10288 Rules (Clark)   FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: To be determined.   EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect immediately.
