A provision cutting the pensions of military retirees in the bipartisan budget deal that the Senate will vote on this week does not exempt disabled veterans, the Washington Free Beacon has learned.
Disabled retirees were previously thought to be exempt from the changes to military retiree pay, which could cost servicemembers up to $124,000 over a 20-year period.
The Free Beacon previously reported that military retirees under the age of 62 would receive 1 percentage point less in their annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) in the plan crafted by House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R., Wis.) and Senate Budget Committee Chairman Patty Murray (D., Wash.).

Senator Jeff Sessions (R) tried desperately to get an amendment passed that restored Military Veterans benefits by closing a loophole in the tax law that gives illegal immigrants child tax credits. The savings from preventing ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS GETTING TAX CREDITS would have saved our brave veterans from pension cuts---HARRY REID (D) and ALL DEMOCRATS in the Senate crushed this amendment. Anyone who is a Democrat deserves to rot in hell for choosing ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS to get taxpayer money while cutting MILITARY.
Dems are toast..done pissed off a big patriotic group of voters.....screw the ILLEGALS..throw every dam one of them out on their ass...STOP THE INSANITY CALL YOUR REPS NOW
