As a proud american and a Navy Wife, I am outraged on how little of pay Military members get. They put their lives on the line EVERY day. They work ungodly hours to protect their country they love. Yet when it comes to their pay I along with MANY others feel they do not get what they deserve they should.
There are athletes and actors that make millions of dollars and dont do anything for this Country. Yet they get rewarded with fancy cars huge houses big fat paychecks. You name it they get it.
Is it fair to say that Military families are low income Yes they get Medical insurance which by the way ISNT free because the taxes that are taken out of that members check and their spouses paycheck do go toward that medical they receive! Is if fair that families are torn apart months at a time so that their loved one (s) can go over seas and protect the rest of the country Or to help other countries
I'm not saying that Military families should be makeing as much as the big stars do but I sure feel that they deserve alot more for what they do !
All I ask is if YOU agree that Military members pay should increase that you sign this and hope we can get it to a higher power !!
Thank you !
I honestly cannot believe how quickly things are moving and it keeps hitting me when I look at the screen that so many people feel this exact same frustration with our families being overlooked. It makes me feel less alone in this struggle to see so many of you standing up for what these service members really deserve after everything they sacrifice.

My husband has been deployed 3 times and we still struggle to pay for groceries every month. This is so wrong.

TRUTH. Athletes get paid way to much while these guys put everything on the line. About time someone says something.
