I'm sure they would rather not have it. You very likely WILL get an email from them arguing their point, but that's a bout it. I'm proud to be on any list arguing against stupid user fees that a re best handled with fuel tax.

There needs to be 25,000 signatures for the White House to respond. They are 23,000 + short. Sign up if you would like an explanation of how they came up with the $100 fee. There is a May 16 deadline to raise the required number of signatures.

That is short of the 25000 needed for this petition. However I recall that only 5000 signatures were needed to have a petition considered. Have they raised the bar or have I lowered my recall?
