Johnson Let Troop Pay Fail Until President Trump Stepped In

November 2, 2025

Without President Trump’s swift action, military families would have missed a paycheck, all because Julie Johnson refused to reopen the government. She was willing to let our soldiers go without pay rather than give up her partisan demands.

President Trump stepped in and found a way to protect troop pay. Johnson didn’t and wouldn’t.

“Out of touch Democrat Julie Johnson was ready to let military families miss pay. She put illegal immigrants first and our troops last. President Trump found a way to save troop pay, Johnson and Democrats couldn’t be bothered.” – NRCC Spokesman Reilly Richardson
