QUOTE we petition the obama administration to: Stop using Homeland Security funds to seize imported vehicles, and change the DOT/EPA exemption to 15 years. The Department of Homeland Security spends a shockingly disproportionate amount of its budget not on security initiatives, but on customs seizures. In particular, importers of grey-market vehicles have been targeted by monies taxpayers have intended to be used to secure our country against terrorism and terrorist activity. We call upon the Executive Branch to immediately cease this wasteful activity, and furthermore to change the DOT/EPA exemption time on grey-market vehicles from 25 years to 15 years (to match the vehicle regulations of Canada), recognizing that the 25-year rule was enacted due to support from special interests such as Mercedes Benz North America. 25k signatures needed by December 9th. whether these petitions go anywhere...who knows. but it's worth it to see if it does I say! nice article on MotoIQ about it and why the law currently is what it is: http://www.motoiq.com/magazine_articles/ar...mport-laws.aspx -------------------- -Andy
