This is not right! My husband is a very dedicated agent with excellent work ethic. He commutes 2 hours each day, never complains, to take away what was promised at time of recruitment is unacceptable!REPORT COMMENTS

Instead of cutting the pay on our WORKING federal employees, lets just not pay the Senators and Congressmen until they pass a budget that is the best for everyone. Cutting law enforcement pay is the STUPIDEST thing they can do.REPORT COMMENTS

Adverse conditions, long hours, 24/7 protection of the border and risking your life are just a few criterias Agents face day to day. Add 40% cuts and Agents will not be able to perform under the above adverse conditions.REPORT COMMENTS

Despite Congress passing, and the President signing HR 933, it appears that the leadership at DHS/CBP STILL plans to SLASH U.S. Border Patrol agents' PAY. I plead with you to please help us STOP the DRACONIAN CUTS. We (agents) are out on the border every day/night doing our best to keep America safe. We are assaulted, rocked, etc., and this is the thanks that DHS "leadership" gives us???REPORT COMMENTS

My husband works hard to protect our borders. We are not only concerned About this pay cut but about the security of our country and borders. I constantly see illegals and drugs seized on a daily basis. To take this overtime away will drastically affect the way this system and agents work. I worry about the safety of my kids and others. Just a few weeks ago we had illegals in our yard in the middle of the night but thank goodness for my dogs keeping them out and our local agents for apprehending them that next morning. Please consider all factors. Not to mention all the foreclosures and other losses these families face.REPORT COMMENTS

Regardless of how much my family stands to lose from this pay cut, the most important thing to remember here is that our borders will be 40% LESS SECURE!REPORT COMMENTS
