I agree with Jman, isnt there some political fund raiser we could donate to? I would think our money would talk louder than a phone call or a letter.

What exactly does this money go to? It looks like they've raised $218 so far. I think we could probably make a small difference, but I don't wanna donate until someone confirms for me that this will be helpful.

if we get one hugely organized fund from like poker players ALL OVER.. not just 2p2.. i guarantee this thing gets changed.. a lot of effort but trust me the amount of money raised would get the politicians to change the law and play in the games themselves if they dont already

LOL I dont think you realize how much money big lobbying groups have. Random online poker players donating wouldn't even come close.

I've said this before... Is there something we could do with money?

I know it sounds true, but as a sick-good balla, I have a eleventy-six TONs more money than Jesus

I hate talking on the phone, so I pay the homeless to do it for me

So what does everyone think of the actual bill?

Looks like it could be bad for us, but I admit my legalese is not up to snuff.

Stars is on the right track with these PPA freerolls to get people enrolled...you don't need a ton of money if you have numbers; it costs like $5 to be in the AARP and they are one of the most powerful lobbies around.
