To require the Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency to reimburse public employee retirement systems for accidental disability retirements and accidental deaths resulting from the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center.

This bill would require the head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to pay back public employee retirement systems for costs tied to accidental disability retirements and accidental deaths. These must result from rescue, recovery, or cleanup work after the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center. A retirement system qualifies if it has a member who took part in that work. The money could only be used by the retirement system and not by any other group. The bill authorizes $5,913,400,000 for fiscal year 2027 for this purpose.
