Government shutdown may impact Ohio National Guard pay
Spectrum News: Jonathan Entin, the David L. Brennan Professor Emeritus of Law, explained that while federal agencies shut down without appropriations, military functions continue. He noted federally deployed guardsmen may face delayed pay until Congress acts, while state-activated guardsmen remain unaffected since the state covers their salaries. Health benefits remain uninterrupted.
