Deputy Chief of the House, elected today, 2nd most powerful...voted NO

[MagCFO]

Steny Hoyer, who was named the deputy chief in the house today (the second in command position in the US House), voted against the gambling bill that was passed by the house.

Small, but it has to be a positive step.

[Wake up CALL]

Didn't he make a public statement then about the bill not being harsh enough and he didn't like the carveouts as well or am I mistaken?

[Leader]

Voted YES on banning Internet gambling by credit card. (Jun 2003)
