                                 A BILL


 
  To make an emergency additional appropriation to carry out the Head 
                               Start Act.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Jumpstart for Head Start Act of 
2020''.

SEC. 2. APPROPRIATION.

    The following additional amount is hereby appropriated, out of any 
money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, for the fiscal year 
ending September 30, 2021, $1,700,000,000 for making payments under the 
Head Start Act, including for Federal administrative expenses, and 
allocated in an amount that bears the same ratio to such amount as the 
number of enrolled children served by the Head Start agency involved 
bears to the number of enrolled children by all Head Start agencies: 
Provided, That none of the funds appropriated by this Act shall be 
included in the calculation of the ``base grant'' in subsequent fiscal 
years, as such term is defined in sections 640(a)(7)(A), 641A(h)(1)(B), 
or 645(d)(3) of the Head Start Act: Provided  further, That funds 
appropriated by this Act shall not be subject to the allocation 
requirements of section 640(a) of the Head Start Act.
                                 <all>
