Warning: March for Life Buses *must* purchase DC permit


From American Papist comes this alert:

Fr. Joe is trying to spread the word:

Pass the word as quickly as possible… WARNING!!!

March for Life: Important Information on Buses - If your parish or school plans to take a bus to the Rally & Mass, or March for Life, please note that the District of Columbia now requires that any charter bus (even a school bus not owned by your school) must obtain a Trip Permit to enter the city. The permit costs $50. The bus operator can obtain the permit online at http://dmv.dc.gov/info/trippermit.shtm (click on "Trip Permit"). Failure to do so may result in a $500 fine or 180-day jail sentence for the bus owner. We look forward to seeing you on January 22.
