    Its a crime the way we treat our BorderPatrol who put their lives on the line each day for us. DOn't purnish them by reducing their pay and put undue stress on their familes.

    Why does this administration feel that they have to hurt our border patrol agents and the American people by downgrading our national security because of their out of control spending? It's bad enough that we can't come to visit our house (the White House) because of irresponsible and immature cuts!

    I believe the cuts for pay should start at the top. So, our senators and congressmen and women should be required to take this pay cut.

    This administration is playing politics with the border patrol agents and with our safety.

    We need increased security at the borders, NOT a decrease!

    Its seems to me we need additional patrol on the borders !! Why are we cutting them ? Look at the fat budget and cut else where...like fat pensions for politicians. Maybe we can balance the budget there.

    Sacrifice at the top management level should come first regarding pay cuts , then this issue would go away, our leaders just don't get it

    Give these men and woman a raise not a cut. There are so many better ways to save money, don't take away the safety that these men and woman give to us.
