The Biden Administration is facing intense criticism after shooting down a proposal to give U.S. military troops a pay raise.
The House Armed Services Committee’s (HASC) draft of the 2025 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) proposed a $24 billion pay raise to enlisted U.S. service members. However, the Biden Administration said that it “strongly opposes” approving such a “significant” and “permanent” pay raise, citing budgetary constraints.
On the contrary, the Democratic administration recently just approved spending nearly seven times the amount to fund Ukraine’s ongoing war with Russia.
“The Administration is strongly committed to taking care of our Service members and their families, and appreciates the Committee’s concern for the needs of the most junior enlisted members, but strongly opposes making a significant, permanent change to the basic pay schedule before the completion of the Fourteenth Quadrennial Review of Military Compensation,” the White House budget office said in a statement.
The bill would have authorized $883.7 billion for military functions and $1.2 billion for non-defense activities in 2025. H.R. 8070 would have increased compensation changed health care benefits for U.S. military members and their families and extended bonuses and allowances to military personnel.

I guess he will NOW vote Trump since he called for PAY HIKES long ago for military members and the Democrats DENIED his request for the funding.
Dems are pieces of **** when it comes to our armed services, and **** loves DEMOCRATS for it we can only assume.
Anybody who defends Biden is an America hating cock sucking son of a whore *** child molester.Beekeeper » 13 Jun 2024, 6:02 am » wrote: ↑ Here it is!!

Besides base pay, they get a whole raft of allowances, most of them tax free. Plus, if you're not married, you get three hots and a cot for free.
