Abstract
House Bill 1669 aims to require day child facilities to alert parents or guardians of
enrolled children sixty days prior to the permanent closure of the facility. The main purpose of this bill is to protect hard working parents in Tennessee from being
blindsided by their childcare service by giving them the right to know 60 days in advance before permanent closure of the childcare agency their child or children are currently enrolled in or are currently on the waitlist for (Tennessee General assembly, 2024). This is an important issue because
72 percent of working parents said they cannot afford not to work and so they need reliable childcare option (Tennessee for Quality Early
Education, 2020)

We uploaded the distribution license signature form in the section for the paper because there was no other option to add a file elsewhere. This is where the system kept freezing for us the other day.
