Army Pay Bill Faces House Delay Amid $42 Minimum Debate
The House considered raising base pay for soldiers and sailors beyond $42 a month but leaders expect the final bill to keep $42 as the minimum. An amendment for $50 to privates and $54 for first class privates and seamen sparked internal opposition as cost estimates neared half a billion dollars annually. The measure covers army navy marine coast guard and related services with broader allowances for higher ranks.
