House and Senate negotiators agreed to a detailed plan to keep the federal government running. Parts of government could be shut down if this legislation doesn't go into effect. The compromise is expected to win approval. It cuts to cost of living adjustments for disabled military retirees and survivors. It also spends an annual rate higher than last year's rate of $986 billion.
In my opinion, this is a good compromise. It is for a good cost, so it is worth the extra money. I believe that the compromise will win approval. Basically, the veterans will get their funding back. This will make many Americans happy, especially the military retirees and survivors. They are the ones who deserve it the most.
