Please support this petition and ensure pay for our military in the event of a government. Shutdown/ default. As a military spouse. I see firsthand the daily sacrifices that our brave men and women in uniform endure. Most of them have faced numerous deployments, spending months away from their beloved family. They miss birthdays, holidays, first steps, and a multitude of other occasions and never as much as think twice about it. They serve this great country with every ounce of their being and I could not be more proud of each and everyone of them. Despite their efforts and numerous sacrifices however, our troops pay is continuously being used as a bargaining chip in a game of political chicken. The never ending political gridlock is now, once again threatening a shutdown which will halt our pay. What will it take for somebody to have the courage to stand up for those who have fought so hard for the very freedoms we as Americans enjoy?? These brave souls should not be punished because our elected officials in Washington can not work together and get the job done. If congress can get paid for NOT doing their job, so too should the military receive pay for DOING theirs!!
