Fight for Online Poker!! Weeks of 11/5 & 11/12
Based on our discussions, let’s do the following this week and next:
1. We have one more month to get our UIGEA comments submitted. We have until Dec. 12th, so let's make a lot of comments between now and then. This hasn't shown up on the FoF action plan (released a couple of days ago), so we may have a head-start here. Please go to
https://pokerplayersalliance.org/new...le.php?DID=293 for instructions on submitting your comments.
2. As a result of the Fly-In and our hard work this year, we have good mommentum now. If you haven't written to Congress in the past 30 days, please do so. The letter we all co-wrote with PPA is at
http://capwiz.com/pokerplayersallian...46&type=co; sending that takes less than one minute. Regardless of when you last called, let's call this week and next. Phone numbers are at

3. If you have ANY connection to MA, please contact Gov. Patrick and tell him you won't tolerate a ban on Internet poker. Also, contact Barney Frank for help. He is powerful in the Mass. Democratic party.
4. If you have ANY connection to KY, please contact soon-to-be governor-elect Steve Beshear and ask him to ensure that Internet poker is not excluded in his proposal to legalize casino gaming in the state.
5. 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]
