This market will resolve to “Yes” if the United States federal government, within 45 days of the current government shutdown ending, begins implementing a policy under which both furloughed and excepted civilian federal employees will receive full back pay for the entire period of the current government shutdown. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. Furloughed and excepted civilian employees refers to employees of federal agencies funded by annual appropriations who have either been furloughed on account of the lapse in appropriations or are excepted from such a furlough and are able to work without pay during the lapse. Uniformed military personnel, U.S. Postal Service employees, government contractors, or other employees of the federal government whose pay is not dependent upon annual appropriations are excluded. The shutdown will be considered to have ended if the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) announces that the U.S. federal government is not shut down due to a lapse in appropriations. The day following any such announcement will be day 1 of the 45 day count. An official announcement of the commenced implementation of a policy that both furloughed and excepted federal employees will receive full back pay for the entire period of the government shutdown or a consensus of credible reporting confirming that such a policy is being implemented will both qualify for resolution, even if federal workers do not receive full back pay within this market’s timeframe. Informal announcements or announcements of intent to implement such a policy will not count. The primary resolution sources for this market will be official information from the United States federal government and a consensus of credible reporting.
How is this not resolved or 99%? IRS literally already began back pay on the 19th and other agencies have given back pay too
The rules say that the government needs to formulate a policy to ensure full wages and the personnel involved. If you say they have already received it, then I am sure the government is still following existing laws rather than a newly formulated policy.
It does not say that. It says "begins implementing a policy". This idea you have hinging on a new formulation instead of the existing law is irrelevant to the resolution.
So far, there hasn't been any announcement saying that the government is implementing a policy.
plus we have credible reporting from multiple news outlets discussing the date of employees receiving backpay
No one said they wouldn’t receive full pay; what this market needs is a government policy.
Are you retarded or ESL? Go look up the definition of "policy" real quick. It's a course of action. The government has already given backpay. I'm about to propose resolution and you're going to lose your money
It seems that the government is not formulating relevant policies but is instead relying on existing laws.
implementing =/= formulating
dispoot
yes
i might have lose

Have you seen the official announcement?
Yeah most people have already received their money
There needs to be a clear government led policy to support it
Can the official provide a countdown function for this market?
Its already over
According to the latest document released by OPM, this proposition should be settled as "Yes".
What are you talking about? Tomorrow is the first day of this prediction
i might have lose
or win. but i listen to reasons
Federal employees are likely to receive back pay after the shutdown, as past agreements have ensured compensation once funding is restored.
