What’s happening with Child Safety and Well-Being Act of 2026?
The Child Safety and Well-Being Act of 2026 is stalled in the House Committee on Education and Workforce as of June 10, 2026. The committee members must decide to hold a vote to move the bill forward, but most bills fail because they never receive a committee vote. This bill has not moved since June 11, 2026, and it faces the same hurdle as the expired H.R. 9875 from September 26, 2024.
