Bill overview
The Pay Our Patriots Act aims to ensure that members of the Armed Forces and essential FAA employees continue to receive their pay and allowances during government funding gaps, or ‘lapses in appropriations.’ It provides temporary funding to cover these payments at the rate in effect before the lapse, preventing disruptions to critical operations. The bill also directs agencies to continue paying employees as if appropriations had been approved on time and guarantees immediate access to the appropriated funds. This legislation is designed to safeguard the compensation of those serving the country and maintaining vital systems.
