    The attacks on Border Patrol Agents by DHS, CBP, and OBP management are unconscionable. The latest attack is the lowest thug tactic to date; changing the methods and amount of pay AFTER the hours have been worked. This from an agency touting "Honor First." Honor first is nothing but a catch phrase used to admonish the honorable agents of this leaderless organization referred to as DHS. DHS's own surveys show time after time how bad the agency is, and still the managers continue to come up with new ways to demoralize employees and weaken the agency. Nick Harrison Honorably Retired BPA after 29 1/2 years, with no disciplinary record, which is no small feat in an agency that tries as hard to fire people as it does to hire them.

    Cut Congress pay scale. Leave Border Patrol alone. Border Patrol Agents should be worrying about suspects in the field, not whether they can feed their families.

    We need protection in our borders, we need Home Land Security specially now that ISIS is around the corner. This is one federal agency we couldn't do without. Thank you.
