Bill overview
The Pay Our Troops Act of 2026 ensures military personnel, including reservists, civilian staff, and contractors supporting the military, continue to receive their pay during government shutdowns. If Congress fails to pass regular appropriations, this bill provides continuing funding for military pay until either appropriations legislation is enacted or January 1, 2027. This aims to protect the financial stability of service members and their families during periods of government shutdown.
