    Why are we always singled out for pay cuts, and forced to accept a pay reform that no one agreed to? Why would you destroy someone's income? This is going to destroy so many families financially.

    It is unfair to treat our first line of defense like this. They work so hard to keep so many bad guys out of here. They don't deserve this.

    I am so proud of our law enforcement officers and this is absolutely wrong to do to them. They put their lives at risk every day and their jobs are far from easy. Hoping and praying for the families that are looking at this and are now stressed/worried about what they are going to do if this goes through.

    The Border Patrol is our Country's first line of Defense, haven't they suffered enough with long hours and rotations. They have a dangerous job to do and soon they won't be there when needed because of politics.

    The Border Patrol is our Country's first line of Defense, don't mess with their pay. They have a dangerous job to do.

    Our leaders ask us to fill out surveys on how we feel about our jobs, on moral, how to improve our livelihoods. Well we need support from our leaders and when they say we are doing a great job. To please appreciate us and give us peace of mind. Give us stability!!!

    How can you patrol our borders adequately and safely if you're not paying our border patrol agents appropriately for their hard work? They put their lives in danger everyday... Some have even died serving our country by protecting our borders. Don't make it even more difficult on these agents and their families!
