So... what are we looking at in terms of veterans with a government shutdown? [View all]

Anyone here know the facts? I'm hearing a lot of different things.

My hubby is a 100% disabled vet, so, needless to say, his disability forms a big chunk of what pays our bills. He's worried.

My thinking is that it won't affect THIS month's disability payments. That always comes on the last day of the previous month, so I'm thinking that should still be there tomorrow morning. If there is no resolution within the next month, it could affect next month's checks, but that seems unlikely to me (surely they'll end this by then!)--and I can't find anything concrete about whether or not veteran's disability would be affected if there is no resolution by then.

Anything to help me make him feel less scared would be helpful.

Thanks!
