That's how I understand it too, but heard the first full paycheck will be missed on Jan.11th.

Grandstanding tends to appeal to baser emotions more so than would truly caring enough to do the right thing.

This article states that they won't get the check they were supposed to get on Monday, 31 Dec.

Just more BS from the left....Not a single one of my military friends have complained about not being paid, why you ask...they got paid...that's why.
The pay they got today was from last pay period, which was already processed and the pay period occurred when the gov was not shut down.

Same applies to NOAA corp btw.
They received there pay, depending on the bank, they started receiving it today. It was processed starting last Friday. I know this because I know active members of the Coast Guard who told me today that they did indeed receive their pay.

I guess this article was incorrect then?

Most of the affected agencies’ civilian employees will get paid Dec. 28, or a few days later, for work performed prior to the start of the shutdown on Dec. 22. That’s because their pay period generally ran from Dec. 9 through Dec. 22.

But since the military pay schedule is different — the pre-shutdown pay period was Dec. 1 through Dec. 15 — Coast Guard members won’t get paid for work they did through Dec. 21. That’s because military pay systems don’t allow for paychecks covering a partial pay period, according to a Q&A posted on the Coast Guard’s website.

If and when there’s a deal to reopen the government that President Donald Trump signs into law, Coast Guard paychecks should be processed within three to five days.

Congress could pass emergency legislation to ensure Coast Guard paychecks go out, but it would need to happen before this weekend. That would likely require both chambers to gavel in briefly and pass legislation by unanimous consent, with Trump’s signature on the other end. All of that happening in the current environment seems like a remote prospect, at best.

Yes, I agree.


But don't worry....you'll be called slow, don't know anything...and then you'll find out that the person you quoted, absolutely 100% had no clue, and admits to it....

Either / or I guess. Both the articles seem legit. (the one I heard was on Poltico podcast).

I DO know that we got our VA check. (Yeah, I know, different agency)

Judging by Trump's triple down today, it very well may
