FBI AGENTS ASSOCIATION STATEMENT ON REP. MIKE ROGERS

FBI Agents Association (FBIAA) President Reynaldo Tariche issued the following statement on the announcement by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rogers that he will not seek reelection to Congress:

“The FBIAA and our 12,000 active duty and retired Agents thank Chairman Rogers for his many years of public service and for his support of Agents over the years.  Agents knew that they had a strong voice in Congress thanks to Chairman Rogers.  He started his career as an FBI Special Agent and though he left the FBI in 1995 to start his political career, he never forgot the men and women of the Bureau and has been a champion for Agents since his election to Congress. He will be missed and we wish him well in his new career in the private sector.”

The FBIAA is a professional association with a membership of nearly 12,000 active and retired agents nationwide.  The FBIAA was founded over two decades ago in response to the growing recognition that agents needed to join together in order to protect and advance the interests of agents both within the Bureau, as well as in the public domain.  The FBIAA works diligently to promote and facilitate the intelligent, skillful, and efficient discharge of the professional duties of all FBI agents.  The Association works hard to advance and safeguard the careers, economic interests, conditions of employment, and welfare of active and retired FBI agents.
