MI SB1186

Creates a child care executive partnership body to establish a program using state and federal funds as incentives to match local funds from governments, employers, and foundations for community child care partnerships.

Establishes a child care purchasing pool funded with state, federal, and local dollars to provide subsidies to low-income working parents whose family income does not exceed federally subsidized child care program limits, with dollar-for-dollar matching requirements from employers and local government.

Partnership consists of a governor's representative and 9 corporate or child care community members appointed by the governor, serving 4-year terms, meeting at least quarterly and required to report annually to the governor and legislative leaders by December 1.

Early learning coalitions must establish community child care task forces composed of employers (majority), parents, private providers, and children's services council representatives to develop plans showing how many children will be served and how new employers will be recruited.

Takes effect 90 days after enactment; existing corporate body politic continues with all member terms expiring September 30, 2018, and new appointments beginning October 1, 2018.
