Are you assigners getting flack from your Umps. What have you been told to do by National or Regional brass with the Umps that don't want to sign it.

Back to the original issue. I followed through, and received this response from THE highest umpire position in ASA.

The ASA is not doing mandatory background checks at this time – it may happen in the future – but not now. There are some Associations who are doing so, but this is at the Association level only.

Respectfully,

Bottom line, it is a Maryland initiative, not regional, not national.
