Default Re: Congressmen Press for Solution to WTO Internet Gambling Dispute

I think the best way to solve 1-3 is to put plain language out that says no US laws affect remote gaming in jurisdictions where it is legal as long as there are age verification and fraud prevention practices in place. The WTO issue isn't about legality or illegality but market access. A poker and/or sports REGULATORY scheme is peripheral to the entire WTO system. Im sure Antigua would listen and reciprocate some as would the UK/EU. Resolving the WTO goes beyond any bill put out so far, so advocating for them as a way to appease the WTO is plain wrong. Safeandsecure has bought some language that will go in the bill they really want, Im sure of that much. If Antigua succeeds for us it wont be by getting "poker" an exemption.
