Federal Worker Childcare Protection Act of 2025

This bill would reimburse certain federal employees for childcare costs during the lapse in federal funding that began on or about October 1, 2025. It covers federal employees who were furloughed or working without a paycheck during that period and who paid for childcare. Reimbursement depends on Congress providing funds for it. Employees would need to give the General Services Administration a receipt from a childcare provider to be reimbursed.
