Default Re: Fight UIGEA!! -- Action plan for week of 2/26

[ QUOTE ]
What we really need is to create an environment where a lot of politicians support us and are willing to vote with someone who finally proposes a UIGEA repeal (is this even legally possible?) or a skillgame carve-out.

I agree. I imagine more than one weekly action plan will involve writing to media to let them know we're here. The problem with reporters is that they interpret what they see based on their preconceived notions. For example, the media hardly mentioned our role in the Republican losses of 2006 because all the reporters could see was Iraq and the corruption (coincidentally, that's what they spent their time reporting on). We need to influence their mindset a little bit.
