Was that in the news? Barney Frank's support of the bill, I mean. Where would I find that?

See one of my earlier posts with link.

Also I was going to e-mail this, but they don't accept e-mail outside his district so I will call tomorrow to express this:

Dear Mr. Frank,

I am a recent convert to the Democratic Party and contributor to your campaign largely in part of your efforts to preserve American’s freedom to play internet poker. I have been so impressed by your efforts and efforts of many in the Democratic Party, and in turn I have donated to the DCCC, Democratic Congressmen in close races in 2006, and the Steve Beshear (pro-gaming Democrat) in the 2007 Kentucky Governor’s race.

Unfortunately my enthusiasm to support and donate to Democratic causes has taken a major hit with Deval Patrick’s casino legislation which makes it a crime to play online poker ( Section 15(h)(2)(i) ). As a favor, could you ask Deval to reconsider this portion of the bill and put in a good word for the online poker community. We are merely law-abiding, tax-paying citizens who like to play cards online and present no harm to anyone.

Thank you,
