Guaranteeing Social Security Payments and Operations During Government Shutdowns.
This bill ensures the continuous operation of the Social Security Administration (SSA) during fiscal year 2026, even if the federal government experiences a funding lapse (shutdown). This guarantees that retirees and beneficiaries will receive their scheduled payments without interruption. SSA offices must remain fully functional, including responding to public inquiries, regardless of budget disputes.
Key points
Secures necessary funding for the Social Security Administration's administrative costs in FY 2026 to prevent payment disruptions during potential government shutdowns.
Mandates that the SSA maintain all normal operations, including customer service and communication, even if federal funding is temporarily suspended.
