They’ll eventually get paid when Democrats agree to put the country first.

Coast Guard is under Dept of Homeland Security (they have never been DoD like the Army, Navy, and Air Force). Nobody in DHS is getting paid. They will receive all back pay when the government reopens, just like they did with the last shutdown, and the one before that, and the one before that.

Does it suck not getting paid as scheduled? Of course.

Is Coast Guard any more special than the other agencies under DHS? (ICE, Border Patrol, Secret Service) Nope.

Fifty years ago some members of the Coast Guard were temporarily assigned to the Navy and served in Vietnam. They deserve recognition for that, but it really has jack shite to do with a shutdown in 2019.

Looks like a lot of people read your comment as "Coast Guard is a part of DoD".

Army and Navy are the only constitutionally required national defense agencies.
