Coast Guard to Get Paychecks Amid Shutdown
An official confirmed a plan to shift funds ensuring Coast Guard paychecks during the shutdown, which has lasted 13 days, while legal concerns remain unresolved.
- On Monday Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said she found an `innovative` way to pay the Coast Guard during the shutdown, and `the brave men and women of the U.S. Coast Guard will not miss a paycheck this week.`
- Because the Coast Guard falls under the Department of Homeland Security, not the Department of Defense, its paychecks were left in limbo after the United States federal government shut down on October 1.
- Pentagon officials moved about 8 billion in unobligated prior-year RDTE funds to cover service members' pay this Wednesday, the Department of Defense said.
- Acting Commandant Admiral Kevin Lunday said the Coast Guard's people are its heart and expressed gratitude as more than 4,000 federal workers were laid off last week.
- Administration officials are eyeing $165 billion from the One Big Beautiful Bill for Department of Homeland Security pay, but critics warn such shifts could violate budget laws.
