Bill Summary
A BILL To ensure continuity of pay and allowances for members of the Armed Forces in the event of a lapse in appropriations.
AI Summary
This bill, the Pay Our Military Act, appropriates such sums as are necessary to ensure the continuity of pay and allowances for members of the Armed Forces, certain civilian employees, and contractors during fiscal year 2024 if regular appropriations are not in effect.
* **Pay and Allowances for Armed Forces:** Funds are provided for members of the Armed Forces, including reserve components, who are on active service or performing inactive-duty training.
* **Support for Military Personnel:** Funds are also appropriated for civilian employees of the Department of Defense and the Coast Guard (when not operating as a service in the Department of the Navy) who are determined by the Secretary concerned to be providing support to members of the Armed Forces.
* **Contractor Support:** Funds are also appropriated for contractors of the Department of Defense and the Coast Guard (when not operating as a service in the Department of the Navy) who are determined by the Secretary concerned to be providing support to members of the Armed Forces.
The funding provided by this Act will remain available until the enactment of regular or continuing appropriations for these purposes, the enactment of an appropriations act that does not include these appropriations, or January 1, 2025, whichever occurs first. The appropriations are made from the Treasury not otherwise appropriated.
