Senate Announces 2009 Defense Bill
May 1st, 2008
Today, May 1, 2008, the Senate’s Armed Services Committee announced it’s newly drafted defense authorization bill which would authorize $612.5 billion in fiscal 2009. The measure would authorize a 3.9 percent pay raise for U.S. military personnel, a half percentage point more than President Bush sought in his budget request.
I am sure the proposed 2009 military pay raise and defense spending in general will be a major issue as the national elections draw closer. Should be a fun ride so stay tuned to NavyCS for your up to date military pay information!
