    This kind of pay cut is ridiculous. No one can survive losing 40% of their pay...and with little notice.

    I do not understand why you expect dedication and superior integrity from your agents, but you will not support their livelihood. Morale of your workforce is down, and that leaves a gaping hole in the success of their daily duties.

    These agents put their life on the line every single day, battling crime and the elements; often in triple digit temperatures.

    We can not allow low moral and lack of pay to pass for our service men/woman at boaders who protect our land and people. This sets up a bad deal for anyone of them that feel cheated or worse unappreciated to take bribes or turn their heads when they are on patrol.

    Let's face it America. Congress and Barry are stacking up Radical Islamist and Illegals in our country as a means to our end. Your children and grandchildren are doomed. America is already under attack. In the end, you can run but you can't hide. God have mercy on us all.

    if we lose even more of our pay. It will exponentially increase low morale and disgruntledness within the agency.
