this was posted in the leg. forum by The engineer today (more good news!):

"

IGREA has just picked up six additional cosponsors, three of whom supported HR 4411, the Internet Gambling Prohibition and Enforcement Act. As dying bills don't typically pick up cosponsors, it looks like Rep. Frank is working behind the scenes to push this one through.

If you support IGREA (or even if you don't, but you think we should be on the offensive to build political capital), you may consider sending a letter to your congressman and senators if you haven't yet. You might also consider a letter to your newspaper, a post to a blog, etc., if you feel like it.

Cheers.

Rep Melancon, Charlie [D-LA] (for HR 4411)

Rep McCarthy, Carolyn [D-NY] (for HR 4411; one of the "Fight UIGEA" targets)
Rep Rodriguez, Ciro D. [D-TX] (freshman)
Rep Crowley, Joseph [D-NY] (for HR 4411) "

So.. I mean. What's a rough timeline for the bill to go from wherever the hell it is now to helping to set up harrahspoker.com? Does the bill specify how online gambling sites will be taxed? If you were a bookie putting odds on this passing, what odds would you put?
