Fund CISA Personnel Act of 2026
This bill, titled the Fund CISA Personnel Act of 2026, provides emergency funding to the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to pay its employees during a federal government shutdown. It authorizes the agency to use Treasury funds to cover standard pay, benefits, and allowances for CISA staff when regular appropriations are not available, ensuring critical cybersecurity functions continue without interruption. The funding is temporary and will end when new appropriations are passed or by September 30, 2026, whichever comes first. The bill also includes provisions to prevent double payment to employees and ensures that costs incurred under this emergency funding are later charged to the appropriate permanent budget accounts.
