Barry Moore votes to increase pay for all military personnel | 2023-09-29 | 2023 | 2023-09 | Republican | House | AL | Barry Moore | M001212 | barrymoore.house.gov | barrymoore | https://barrymoore.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | September 29, 2023 Washington, D.C. — Rep. Barry Moore (AL-02) voted in support of H.R. 4365, the FY24 Defense Appropriations Act. This legislation invests in America's military superiority to deter China, combats fentanyl, enhancing oversight programs to ensure the appropriate use of taxpayer funds, prohibits woke curriculum, protects innocent life, and provides a 5.2% pay raise for all military personnel. “This legislation invests in a strong national defense to counter Chinese aggression and rejects Biden's woke agenda that harms our readiness," said Rep. Moore. “House Republicans want to ensure our servicemembers' needs are taken care of, and our military is focused on ever-increasing global threats rather than funding abortion travel or Ukraine's border instead of our own." The FY24 Defense Appropriations Act: Includes an increase of 5.2% in basic pay for all military personnel effective January 1, 2024, and additional targeted pay increases for certain enlisted grades. Cuts $20 billion from the President’s Budget Request and redirects that funding to address warfighting needs, counter China, and support our servicemembers and their families. Prohibits the implementation, administration, or enforcement of the Biden Administration’s executive orders on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Defunds the position of Deputy Inspector General for Diversity and Inclusion and Extremism in the Military. Prohibits the use of funds to perform medical procedures that attempt to change an individual’s biological gender. Prohibits the use of funds for events on military installations or as part of recruiting programs that bring discredit upon the military, such as a drag queen story hour for children or the use of drag queens as military recruiters. Prohibits the use of funds to promote or advance Critical Race Theory (CRT). Prohibits the recruitment, hiring, or promotion of any person who has been convicted of charges related to child pornography or other sexual misconduct. Prohibits the use of funds for paid leave and travel or related expenses of a federal employee or their dependents for the purposes of obtaining an abortion or abortion-related services.
