Enacts the "shutdown impact mitigation act"

Summary

The bill creates a rapid‑response program that can give zero‑interest loans or short‑term grants to New Yorkers who are federal employees or contractors when the federal government shuts down. It also requires banks, landlords and utility providers to pause fees and forego credit penalties for those workers. The goal is to keep families from falling behind on rent, mortgages, childcare and other essential bills until federal pay resumes.
