Good news.... Ginger Cleary,Rome, GA w <http://www.rihadin.com> ww.rihadin.com Democracy seeks the will of the majority while liberty seeks the protection of the majority. Member GSDCA Member Sawnee Mtn Kennel Club GA Director RDOES. ----- Original Message ----- From: Shannon de Bruin Ok, Im spilling the beans! Right away, probably tonight or tomorrow (I dont have the answer to exactly when) the Shipping restrictions into the USA are LIFTED. TSA put all this in motion with out telling any other department. I have been in contact with the USDA and Homeland Security and now that everyone is on the same page this foolishness is stopped. Homeland siad that the TSA has not made any arrangements with other countries never mind thier own people. The paperwork was not even ready for the people on the US side to process all this! As a result this should be lifted tonight or tomorrow. They have sent me a package that will spell everything out, I will release the info as soon as I have it. This program is to be reinitiated (possibly) in 2012 but NOT before then. So, for now, we no longer need brokers or known shippers. When it is reinstated there will be some other changes that will make it not so totalitarian protectionistic.
