Due to polotics in DC, IT seems we are one of the many pawns being used to get what each side wants. Whatever yoir side is, i dont care. But, has anyone found concrete evidence stating we will get paychecks on the first of Nov?.
Please no dems/pubs battles, just looking for assurance of pay or no pay, as some of us need it.

Retirees and Annuitants,

You will continue to receive your pay on time during this government shutdown.

Military retirees and annuitants are not paid from Continuing Resolution Act (CRA) appropriations. Therefore, your payments are not affected by this shutdown.

I receive $888/mo for service connected disability due to exposure to agent orange. While it's nice pocket change I am fortunate I don't need to have it.

So far I haven't heard of any cut off of funds and that I doubt will happen but this president is so clueless I suppose anything could happen.
