    I'm packing boxes as I type. My husband is as dedicated as they come, what a slap across the face. This has turn our life upside down in a matter of weeks. Loosing sleep is the least of my worries.

    Border Patrol Agents do their job and do it well. Congress and the president barely do their job. Border Patrol Agents do their job and get a huge pay cut. Congress and the president dont do their job and vote on a pay raise. Clearly we see where the priorities are in this country. Fix this pay scandal for Border Patrol Agents please. Your reelections may depend on it.

    This is an important job for security of our country. Why cut their pay? This is what is wrong with Obama's government!

    Families will lose their homes, their credit will be runied by their inability to pay their bills. The real outcome of such a cut will be devastating on many fronts.

    They risk their lives to protect our boarders. Find another way to balance the budget. Get rid of the bloated waste in the government without breaking these people's backs.

    On April 7th, due to these irresponsible and reckless cuts, the border will be wide open. I have apprehended terrorists crossing through the desert southwest of Tucson. If these cuts go through, our nation will be unprotected.
