    I challenge anyone of the suit and ties to come climb the fences, tear your limbs with the brush, walk 6-8 hrs in 110 degrees. I welcome you!

    Since our agencies salary budget has been fully funded now why are the upper management still telling us our hours and pay will be reduced?

    The House and Senate should consider taking a pay cut before those that protect this great nation do. Dispicable!

    Doing cutbacks on people that work?? Instead of those that don't have jobs and collecting food stamps !! That's where you need to cutback or maybe congress needs to cutback in their salary!

    This is an absolute DISGRACE! This MUST NOT HAPPEN. Get off of your BUTTS and do the job you are getting paid to do. How is it fair that the border patrol agents are not getting paid for doing their job yet you are getting paid for NOT DOING YOUR JOB. If I have any say in it, come next election - you are FIRED!!

    Instead of cutting the budget for Border Patrol how about Congress take a budget cuts! My husband puts his life on the line every night on the borders and does not deserve to take the pay cut. He loves his job but this is ridiculous! How can you expect the agents to want to do their jobs when you keep taking money away from them?!

    Many agents will lose their homes and cause great stress in their marriage. I will not be surprised if our suicide rate goes even higher than it is vs. All other law enforcement agencies. This is so sad and a slap in the face!

    If border patrol is going to take a 40% paycut so should the politicians.
