Default Import Legality Petition

"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."

This petition was started after someone had noticed an excessive amount of money being used to seize "grey-market" vehicles when the money should be going to other various causes. I'm helping and re-posting this cause because a friend asked me too and I think our community not only as S2000 Fans, but Car Fans in general could benefit from this change. So please, just take a look and if you agree sign the petition, Thanks Guys.
