Thank everyone for the info. I went online to renew my GE and was given an appointment 3 days later. To my suprise, after walking the entire terminal C at newark looking for TSA. I was told I could only renew Pre Check for $85. When the shutdown is over, for another $100. I could apply for GE. Wasted 3 hours, I can never get back. No I didn't get sucked in to renew Pre Check. I will wait for the government to resolve the shutdown, or until I turn 75 years old. Which ever comes first!
