What this bill would do

The "Pay Our Military Act of 2025" provides continued funding for military pay and allowances during a government shutdown. It appropriates necessary sums for members of the Armed Forces and reserve components for fiscal year 2026. Additionally, it covers civilian personnel and contractors who are determined by the Secretary concerned to be providing support to service members. This applies to both the Department of Defense and the Coast Guard under the Department of Homeland Security. The authority for these funds ends once regular or continuing appropriations are enacted or on January 1, 2027.
