Sorry for yelling about this - well, no, I'm not sorry - but you need to stand your ground on this issue.
That's really annoying, since they insisted on a doctor's note from me (at ORD). I looked on the TSA's website and couldn't find anything about clearing security with my shoes on and not having a note. Is there anything there? Thanks.
