On October 14, 2008 the defense funding bill which includes a 3.9%
military pay raise for fiscal year 2009 has been officially signed
into law by President Bush. The measure authorizes a pay raise for
U.S. military personnel which is a half percentage point more than
President Bush sought in his budget request back in February 2008.
The President's proposal of 3.4% was in keeping with the 2007
Employment Cost Index (ECI) published by the Department of Labor.
The additional half percent added by congress closed the pay gap to
2.9%, a measure to mandate pay increases of an additional .5% over
ECI for the next few years was defeated causing speculation of
future raise amounts.
