Re: Fight for Poker Rights: Friday, July 1st (see post #1 for today's plan)
I just wanted to pop into the thread and thank all of you for putting in the time and effort to help all poker players in protecting their rights as adult Americans. If we continue to make these efforts, we will get the situation changed, and be able to play our game freely, live and online. For those who are reading this and haven't performed Mr. Muny's action items, as so many have said, it really does not take much time, and it does make a difference. Please do this for your sake, as well as ours. And for those of you who already did, again, thanks so much for your efforts.
Sincerely, Greg Raymer (FossilMan)

Let's also be sure to get page views for articles on the issue. I submitted a good article to digg.com, where I am a top 30 "digger". If you like the article, please upvote it here.
Let's focus on members of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce (The ones with an x in front of their names means they don't have open posting. Just respond to a post already on the page.) As we have a new event with the introduction of this poker bill, let's go ahead and continue to own these pages.
For manageability, I subdivided them into subgroups:
Group A
Group B
Group C
* Thanks Sajeffe for putting this list together

Re: Fight for Poker Rights: Friday, July 1st (see post #1 for today's plan)
from this article
http://www.pokernews.com/news/2011/0...ward-10641.htm
"I just left Congressman Barton's office and he said he's heard from a number of congressional offices that their Facebook pages and emails are getting overwhelmed with poker players, and that's a good thing," said John Pappas, executive director of the Poker Players Alliance.
good stuff imo
