Military members are a step closer to a 3.4 percent pay raise, with House lawmakers’ passage of the 2010 defense spending bill Dec. 15.
House and Senate lawmakers agreed in conference to the 3.4 percent raise as part of the $636.3 billion Defense Appropriations bill. The Senate is expected to take up the bill later this week.
The raise is a half percentage point more than the administration requested, and was also included in the 2010 Defense Authorization Act.
