Guaranteeing Military Pay During Government Shutdowns

This bill ensures that members of the Armed Forces, including reservists, will continue to receive their pay and allowances even if the federal government temporarily shuts down due to a budget impasse. The goal is to protect military families from financial instability caused by political gridlock. This funding remains active until a regular budget or continuing resolution is passed.
Key points
Guarantees continuous pay for all active and reserve military personnel during any federal government shutdown.
