          <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Non-Essential Workers Transparency Act&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This bill requires federal agencies to submit reports to Congress&amp;nbsp;regarding employees who were furloughed during a lapse in appropriations (i.e, government shutdown), the total number of employees, and the cost of salaries.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Specifically, each federal agency must submit a report to specified congressional committees&amp;nbsp;within 30 days of the end of a lapse in appropriations. The report must include specified details regarding&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;the total number of employees (including contract employees) employed by the agency before the lapse began,&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;the total number of employees who were furloughed during the lapse,&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;the total number of employees who were not furloughed during the lapse, and&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;the total annual cost of the salaries for each group of employees.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;The report must be submitted in an unclassified form, but it may include a classified annex. Each congressional committee that receives a report must publish the report on its website within 30 days.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The bill also requires the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) to submit a report to Congress&amp;nbsp;regarding the economic effects of each lapse in appropriations.&amp;nbsp;CBO must submit the report within 30 days of the end of a lapse in appropriations and make the report available on its website.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</text>
