Default Fight for Online Poker!! Weeks of 10/21 & 10/28

Fight for Online Poker!! Weeks of 10/21 & 10/28

Based on our discussions, let’s do the following this week and next:

1. Regardless of when you last contacted Congress, in support of the PPA visit to Washington D.C, please write AND call Congress (your senators and your representative) on Monday, Oct. 21 or Tuesday, Oct. 22. The letter we all co-wrote with PPA is at http://capwiz.com/pokerplayersallian...46&type=co; sending that takes less than one minute. Phone numbers are at http://capwiz.com/pokerplayersalliance/dbq/officials.

2. Online public commenting for the proposed UIGEA regulations is now available. You have until Dec. 12 to comment, so please try to make a lot of comments between now and then. Please go to https://pokerplayersalliance.org/new...le.php?DID=293 for instructions on submitting your comment.

3. Let’s write and otherwise lobby Congress and affected businesses (horse/dog tracks & associations, banks, Microsoft, movie studios, etc.) concerning the UIGEA regs, IGREA, the Wexler bill, and the WTO. This Congressional session is coming to an end next month, so it’s push time!

4. Regularly write to newspapers and post to blogs. A few posts here and there can start to put us in the national zeitgeist.


Thanks everyone! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
