Federal program or furloughed State employees whose compensation is 
advanced or reimbursed in whole or in part by the Federal Government--
            ``(A) such furloughed employees shall be compensated at 
        their standard rate of compensation for such period;
            ``(B) the State shall be reimbursed for expenses that would 
        have been paid by the Federal Government during such period had 
        appropriations been available, including the cost of 
        compensating such furloughed employees, together with interest 
        thereon due under section 6503(d) of title 31, United States 
        Code; and
            ``(C) the State may use funds available to the State under 
        such Federal program to reimburse such State, together with 
        interest thereon due under section 6503(d) of title 31, United 
        States Code.
    ``(2) For purposes of this subsection, the term `State' shall have 
the meaning as such term is defined under the applicable Federal 
program under paragraph (1).''.

            Passed the Senate December 20, 1995.

            Attest:

                                                             Secretary.
