The most recent appropriations for the Department of War expired at 11:59 p.m. EST on September 30, 2025. Military personnel will continue in a normal duty status without pay until such time as a continuing resolution or appropriations are passed by Congress and signed into law. Civilian personnel not engaged in excepted activities will be placed in a non-work, non-pay status.
When they stop your taxed, taxpayer funded paycheck while everyone on Capitol Hill is still getting paid. Absolutely electric 👍🏻.
I am not super sure about the meaning of DECORUM & I have been in a "fire fight."
Thanks Chucky and Sombrero Jeffries!! Woot Hoot you DEMOCRATS are simply Amazing...
Semper Fidelis means Always Faithful, we took an oath to protect this nation from Foreign or Domestic threats meaning we will not fail or dishonor this oath. If it means finding secondary means to provide for families so be it but we will never UNBECOME MARINES PERIOD pay or no pay.
tie congress’ pay to passing a budget each year - there’ll never be another shut down
This is not the first time we’ve had a government shutdown and it won’t be the last time. This too shall pass. ALL politicians ought to hang their heads in shame for putting citizens, in uniform or out of uniform in these predicaments. Semper Fidelis!
Asking our Marines to work for free or even with a delay is so unsat, this is beyond comprehension
Marines working with no resources while politicians fight amongst themselves. Standard issue day for an 0311. Get some!
Why the hell does congress get paid if they don’t

2wThis happened to me while in Afghanistan in 2011. Any service member seeing this contact Navy Fed, USAA, or commercial bank and see if they will honor your normal pay deposit until this is rectified. USAA and Navy Fed did it for us in 2011 while in a combat zone. Hopefully they can do it again. Our service members have families to provide for and should be able to focus on training and deployments without this added stressor. It’s already a tough job shouldn’t make it any tougher for the home front. Semper Fidelis
