    Those who do not live in border states really have no idea of the problems. It is unsafe to go in certain places in ARIZONA for fear of running into cartel runs near the border. Please help the US citizens of the border states stay safe by helping support our border patrol troops!

    If the government wants to save money and do pay cuts, it should be equal across the board NOT just Border Patrol agents. Border Patrol Agents work in the heat, cold and in dangerous and remote locations; they dont sit in an A/C environment in a computer desk. ALL government agencies including the president should take a pay cut. Lead by example!!!!!!!

    This is absolutely insane to even think that these brave men and women should shoulder the brunt of these cuts!!! It is even more insane to cut there border patrol's budget when the border is not secure, need even more manpower, and giving our tax dollars to these free loading illegal aliens when each and every one of them need to be deported!!! STOP CATERING TO THE ILLEGAL ALIENS AND SECURE THE BORDER!!

    Perhaps congress woul like to endure a pay cut like this? I've been in the BP for close to 20 years and the pride I used to have for my work is almost gone. My last few years will be marred by wondering if I can continue to provide my family with normal day to day things.
