While shouting that the minimum wage for illegal aliens working at McDonalds should be $15. an hour, President Obama used a loophole in the US Code deter a pay raise to the military. The lower pay increase translates to a Pay Grade E-4 (Corporal, Petty Officer 3d Class, Specialist 4, Senior Airman) with less than three years in service will earn less than $3.00 an hour. Under the 2016 pay scale, a Pay Grade E-1 undergoing recruit training will be paid roughly $2.15 an hour.
Read those miniscule numbers again and then go to the next page for more.
Write or call your Congressmen and women, demand change or they need to be prepared to go out of office. There should be no Military families that go hungry or in need of Medical care,,There is simply no excuse, none whatsoever. You the American people can change is, get involved, they are a proud bunch and won’t beg for help. We didn’t beg when we needed them, they stepped up and got the job done. Now you have a job and responsibility to them. After 35 years, I know the hard ships they go through, its a shame…………….

Didn’t Obama have to use his presidential powers to bypass the Republican budget stalemate to NOT approve anything just to get the 1%-1.3% increases for 2014-2016?
The Army rank of Specialist 4 has not existed in decades. So how accurate is the rest of the information?
