senate 09/30/2025 - 119th Congress
We want to ensure that federal employees who work during government shutdowns can receive unemployment benefits from their states, helping provide financial support when appropriations lapse. This legislation aims to make sure they are covered fairly and that states are reimbursed for these payments.
