WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced today 27 community service agencies and educational organizations received a total of $4,299,950 to provide necessary childcare and learning services during the coronavirus pandemic. The federal funding, distributed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Head Start, was made available by the bipartisan Coronavirus Relief and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2020. Senator McConnell negotiated the coronavirus rescue bill and led it to enactment in December.
