sign on line petition asking passport agency to extend passport

temporary extensions could enable Americans to travel out of the country

Summer plans of many Americans are being disrupted because of passport delays. Weddings, family plans, business trips are being cancelled because the passport agency doesn't have the resources to process passports. A suggestion: the passport agency should authorize temporary extensions. Background checks would still be required. Please sign our petition and advise if your family is experiencing problems getting passports. My e mail is pfeiner@greenburghny.com Two recent successes! A Greenburgh woman was able to fly to Bulgaria to attend wedding of her brother. And, another constituent just got her passport yesterday and is able to travel to Aruba with her mom. Thank you Senator Schumer for your help in expediting these applications.
