This bill establishes and expands death gratuity payments for federal employees, including civil servants and military personnel, killed in the line of duty. It creates a new $100,000 death gratuity (adjusted annually for inflation) for federal employees whose deaths result from job-related injuries, criminal acts, terrorism, natural disasters, or other circumstances determined by agency heads, with payments made to designated beneficiaries in a specified order of precedence. The bill also increases funeral expense reimbursement from $800 to $8,800 (adjusted annually), extends death gratuity coverage to FAA, TSA, and VA employees, and modifies death gratuity provisions for federal employees with military service and Foreign Service employees working abroad.
