Keep military and support pay
If enacted, this bill would keep pay and allowances flowing to military members during any lapse in FY2026 appropriations. It would appropriate from the Treasury "such sums as are necessary" to cover pay for members of the Armed Forces who perform active service during the lapse. DoD civilians and Coast Guard civilians would be paid if the Secretary concerned determines they are supporting those members. DoD and Coast Guard contractors would be paid if the Secretary concerned determines they are supporting those members. The authority would end at the earliest of: enactment of an appropriation for these purposes; enactment of the applicable appropriations act without such an appropriation; or January 1, 2027.
