Evidence

Strickland said the CARE for Parenting Students Act would expand access to federal childcare assistance and provide an additional $850 million in annual authorization for CCDBG.

Strickland introduced a childcare bill that matches the pledge’s funding figure: an extra $850 million per year for the Child Care and Development Block Grant, but it was introduced as legislation rather than enacted into law.

partial same_term A for effort

Strickland advanced the exact funding target by introducing legislation for an additional $850 million annually for CCDBG, but the evidence shows only a bill introduction rather than enactment or actual authorization. That supports partial credit for a serious in-office attempt, not full delivery.
