How the FY 2008 Military Base Pay Chart Came to Be
Posted by admin
For the 2008 fiscal budget, the House of Representatives passed their version of the FY 2008 Military Base Pay Chart for the National Defense Authorization Act in May of 2007. The Senate passed its version in October of 2007. The two versions then went to a compromise committee and a final bill was presented to the White House in December that the President vetoed. After the 2007 holiday break, Congress passed a new version of the bill, removing provisions that the President disagreed with in the bill that had been submitted in December. The President signed the new version into law in January of 2008.
