Texas Child Care Cuts Hit 14K Kids | San Antonio News

Texas is slashing child care scholarships for 14,000 kids despite last year’s $100 million boost—thanks to inflation, over 100,000 children now wait for help. Starting September, most regions face steep cuts, with some losing hundreds or even thousands of spots, even as Dallas-Fort Worth gets a tiny bump. Critics blast the move as cruel timing, especially as families battle rising costs—and argue this lifeline lets parents work and thrive. The Texas Workforce Commission approved the cuts, but lawmakers are scrambling, eyeing the rainy day fund to avoid permanent damage.
