    You are punishing the very people that protect our country! Cut the "fat" that is not needed; such as the $102,000.00 salary for the White House dog walker! Shameful!!!

    So you're cutting those of us that work hard, every day. And you're STILL unwilling to make even a minor cut in welfare, foreign aid, or some of the ridiculous things this government wastes money on.

    My father happens to be an agent and I find it quite unfair that he has to receive this dramatic pay cut, when all the man has done is serve his country like a good American should. Due to his hard work I have missed many opportunities to spend time with my dad, as well as his life being placed into jeopardy numerous times. He has four children, including myself, to support and a wife. He deserves every single bit of the salary he has been receiving if not more and for YOU to take it away is completely un-American and ridiculous. I suggest you reconsider your heinous decision and think twice about what you are really doing to our what was once great country.

    We depend on our agents to keep our borders safe, and these agents have family's they also need to keep safe. And yet to many of them are being killed in the fields. 40% paycut is ridiculous. How about they only secure 60% of our borders?

    This is absurd how many more illegal immigrants are going to cross the border illegally and take our jobs, collect welfare money and food stamps.We need as many as employees as possible at the border.The sad thing is the government is allowing them to stay here in the U.S. illegally but cutting everything for us American's what's this country coming to we are in trouble.!!!!
