    If BP pay has been mismanaged are the SESs that oversee the agency receiving pay cuts also ?

    Why on Earth would we cut the pay of those who protect our Nation?

    It is wrong to cut their pay, I was an agent until last year, the BP earns every penny and do a thankless job. Obummer and his lackeys stink!

    their jobs are so dangerous, they do not deserve a cut in pay. They put their lives on the line.

    It can't be feasible to ask the BP to shoulder almost 75% of the cuts for the whole agency. Every LEO, whether local, state or federal, is not paid nearly what they are worth for what they are expected to do and the split second decisions they are forced to make under tense, violent and rapidly evolving circumstances. How about our lawmakers take a 40% pay it because they obviously are not using their heads with this proposal.
