As a former Coastie, I feel for them. While the other Forces are getting paid, the Coast Guard falls under Homeleand Security. The Prrsident has in the past put the CG under the Navy during wartime.

The U.S. Coast Guard is the only military branch working without pay during the government shutdown.

Active-duty members got a one-time payment on Dec. 31, 2018, but their next payday, which would fall on Jan. 15, is still in limbo, leaving tens of thousands of military families fearing for their finances.
