    Since Gohmert says "filed again" the text available HERE should be the same.

    Thanks for the link. That text includes the Coast Guard. However, my niece's husband is a Coastie and apparently he's not getting paid. Did Homeland Security get written out subsequent to the linked version?

    Well, its just an act he sponsored, but it has not been passed (I think he has been trying since 2011), so I suppose that would explain it. I had heard the Coast Guard isn't getting paid, but have heard the other branches mentioned.

    The DoD funding got passed. But, the USCG is under the Homeland Security budget which hasn't.
