Didn't mean to single you out, speaking to the greater community, really. My bad.

Came here looking for the same answer, I genuinely don't know. As I understand it though, they weren't. I think it was exclusively to guarantee their pay through shutdowns. She referenced how it was a problem in 2013.

So here is a link to the military spending bill that is linked in the article in another thread.

So I don't know if she played with the wording to the press or what but that isn't what her bill she introduced says.
