thanks..but like most WH comments on their budget figures, they exaggerate and cant be supported by the annual budget documents.
I will stick with the non-partisan CBO figures.
Wasnt it Clinton who began to close the gap with civilian pay that had widened under GHW Bush?
Wasnt it also the Democrats in Congress since 2001 who proposed increases in Family Separation Allowances and Imminent Danger Pay (and making the increases permanent) only to face resistance each year by the Republican majority?
