Default How many posters here would go on a free trip to DC to speak to their

I know some folks who are looking to put something together. They want to sponsor regular people to visit their Senators so they can tell them how they feel about online gambling and the Leach/Goodlatte/Kyl bills.

If a third party covered the airfare, transportation, and the hotel, how many of you would take two days out of your life to go tell your Senator in Congress how your thoughts?

Thanks in advance for your responses.

I live in the DC area, so as a side bonus I would introduce you to an incredibly juicy 2/5/ or 5/10 NL while you were visiting.

Brief time out of my life? Expenses covered? Ability to take the fight to Washington? Chance to meet other good poker players in the flesh?

Be glad to.

I'd do it. Free trip? Chance to talk to Senators about online poker? Why the hell not.

Maybe, if there was some free time provided so that I could hang out with a few friends of mine who live in the city.

I like Washington DC a lot, but I really wouldn't have any desire to participate in something like this. I also don't think it's a very good idea but I suspect that other people might.
