National Press Club Write Up About FBIAA NEWSMAKER

If you're just tuning in to our blog now, FBIAA leadership held a press event at the National Press Club in Washington, DC this week.

The NPC was good enough to post a short article encompassing the highlights of the event.

Writer Jennifer Ejim quotes FBIAA President Rey Tariche saying, "The sequestration budget cuts would affect some mission-critical operational needs which would not be met."

Ejim also points readers to our Voices from the Field report, saying it is "based on the 'real-life' experiences of FBI special agents regarding the effects of recent budget cuts on their work."

Additionally, the article recounts the discussion of potential furloughs and the drastic impact those days might have on investigations.

Read the full NPC summary of the event to see how FBIAA "has been going to both sides of the aisle, trying to get fully funded so that they can do their mission, which is to protect the American people from criminals and terrorist threats.”
