The U.S. Military's Stop-Loss policy has been described as a back-door draft. Servicemen and women who are stop lossed are forced to extended their reenlistment contracts. In addition, to the obvious issues the stop-loss policy does not have a provision for compensation the forcibly reenlisted Servicemen/women. A typical reenlistment contract would include a signing bonus. Congress has proposed passing a bill to offer monthly compensation to all stop-lossed Troops.
