Multigenerational Caregiving Data Act
To require the collection of information on multigenerational caregiving in at least one major Federal population survey, and for other purposes.
The Multigenerational Caregiving Data Act proposes to collect data on multigenerational caregiving, focusing on families where multiple generations, such as grandparents, parents, and children, are involved in caring for one another. This data would be gathered through a major federal survey to better understand the trends and challenges faced by these families.
This bill would primarily affect families that engage in multigenerational caregiving, as well as researchers, policymakers, and organizations working to support these families. By gathering comprehensive data, the bill aims to inform better policies and support systems tailored to the unique needs of multigenerational households.
The Multigenerational Caregiving Data Act was introduced on May 13, 2026, and has been referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. As of now, no further action has been taken on this bill.
