    I just want to do my job, however please pay me at a rate that I deserve and was promised when I was hired. I have moved my family to a border town across the country and give it 100% everyday.

    You're treating our border patrol agents like dirt! They deserve better than this. They put their lives on the line everyday, protecting us! Show them some appreciation and stop bringing down morale!

    This is how our Government chooses to thank the men and women who risk their lives daily to protect our borders? By taking away30-40 percent of their pay. It's more than disheartening.

    This administration is the worst. It's unbelievable that they'd rather financially support ILLEGAL immigrants and have our own U.S. citizens suffer with paycuts. Here's an idea, why not have congress and our president take a 40% cut since they can not seem to do the job we the people elected them to do. Not a proud day for America.

    This is ridiculous! Most people couldn't do this job. My brother is an agent, and he is constantly getting the short end of the stick from the government. Enough is enough!

    Why doesn't congress take a 40% pay cut and see if they can live off of it.
