Default Military pay freeze and budget cuts

As i know MANY of you on this board have family who is military or is in the military yourself, i encourage you to sign this petition. We need to stop this in its tracks before we're struggling even further to maintain living. Its no big news the military is largely unappreciated for everything they and their families endure serving this country filled with so many ungratefuls. We're already not getting paid enough for everything we live with. Congress and all those up there, should be the ones cutting THEIR pay instead of giving themselves raises. I encourage you to sign the petition and ask others to sign it.

Thank you.

It's not just a pay freeze. It's our insurance, commisary, and all other aspects of military life being targeted.

It is hurting more than the active duty. Veterans who are retired are getting hit too.

Rather than an online petition that does not provide demographics I paste the petition info to emails that I send to my representatives. That way they know who I am and that I am a voter.

As much as this is a issue close to me with my son being in the military, this post is drawing in a political discussion which isn't allowed. Sorry.
