/ 24-19

*The president signed H.R. 9076 into law on 1/4/25.

In September, the House passed bipartisan legislation—Supporting America’s Children and Families Act (H.R. 9076)—that incorporates the text of two bills:

  • Protecting America’s Children by Strengthening Families Act (Title I), which reauthorizes Promoting Safe and Stable Families (PSSF) and Child Welfare Services from fiscal year (FY) 2025 though FY 2029.
  • Strengthening State and Tribal Child Support Enforcement Act (Title II), which grants tribes and contractors access to the same federal tax data as states for child support purposes.

This brief describes the policy and funding provisions included in the bill.
