On the heels of a decision by the U.S House Of Representatives to approve back pay for 800,000 federal workers the Pentagon is now issuing statements to its civilian worker population who are furloughed that they may return to work as early as Monday:

This means the Pentagon has been told by a source close to the Senate and the Administration that the Senate will also pass it and that President Obama will sign it. What this really means is that the Democrat lead Senate and President would rather provide for 800,000 workers who are mostly non-essential over children with cancer, veterans and the elderly.
