Bill > HR1932

This bill, called the Pay Our Troops Act of 2025, aims to ensure that military personnel, civilian Department of Defense employees, and critical defense contractors continue to receive pay during a potential government shutdown in fiscal year 2025. Specifically, the bill appropriates necessary funds from the U.S. Treasury to provide pay and allowances to active-duty military members (including reserve components), civilian personnel supporting military operations at the Department of Defense and Coast Guard, and defense contractors deemed essential to military support. The appropriations will remain in effect until either a regular appropriations bill is passed, a continuing resolution is enacted without specific funding for these purposes, or January 1, 2026, whichever occurs first. This legislation is designed to protect the financial stability of military personnel and key defense support staff during periods of budgetary uncertainty, ensuring that those serving the country are not financially penalized due to potential congressional budget disputes.
