AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would provide funding for the Social Security Administration's administrative costs during any period in fiscal year 2026 when regular or temporary funding from Congress is not in effect, such as during a government shutdown. The money would come from the Treasury in whatever amounts are necessary. The bill would also require the Commissioner of Social Security to make sure the agency keeps carrying out all of its normal functions during such a funding lapse. This includes responding to communications from congressional offices.
