Senate Dems could approve bill to pay military during shutdown

foxnews.com - Senate Democrats are vowing to reject House Republicans' last-minute bid to delay ObamaCare by attaching an amendment to a must-pass spending bill.But a senior Senate Democratic source tells Fox News that Senate leaders will try to swiftly approve a separate House-passed bill that would pay the military in the event of a shutdown.The House unanimously passed that bill early Sunday morning. The bill would ensure that active-duty military -- as well as some civilians and Defense contractors -- get paid even if there's a shutdown.
