Shutdown Fairness Act
The bill ensures federal employees identified as 'excepted' receive their standard pay and allowances during government appropriations lapses. It appropriates necessary funds from the Treasury to cover these expenses for employees performing essential or emergency services. The Act is effective retroactively from September 30, 2025, until a new appropriations law comes into effect.
