Coming to the CWA Convention? Get Your Passport Now

March 1, 2007, Washington, D.C.

If you're planning to attend the CWA convention in Toronto in July, you'll need a valid passport. If you don't have one or need to renew yours, do so right away as changes in U.S. State Department travel rules are bringing in tens of thousands of new passport applications.

The rules, which went into effect in January, require all air travelers 15 and older to have passports for travel between the United States and Canada. For more information about passports, see the State Department webpage: http://travel.state.gov/passport/passport_1738.html.
