AI Summary

Requires federal agencies to pay federal employees and specified contract workers for work missed during government funding gaps, directs that funds needed for those payments be appropriated beginning in fiscal year 2026, and makes pay protections retroactive to September 30, 2025. The law sets rules for who is covered, how and when agencies must provide pay, limits allowable uses of the funds, and requires agencies to arrange for payment once appropriations are provided.
