Just say no to scalping!

Just say no to scalping!

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) sponsored a bill that would make scalping tickets to the Inauguration a federal crime. It passed by voice vote on 1-13. Whether the House passes it before the Inauguration is another matter. What if they have already sold their tickets? It's ok because there's no law? The majority of scalping has already taken place and selling counterfeit tickets to anything is already a crime.

Fine print: Exception is barry's official Inauguration Committee. Can foreigners buy the tickets?
