April 15th marks the one year anniversary of Black Friday. PPA is marking this anniversary with the Players Will Never Fold campaign, so let's all participate:
  1. Our emails, tweets, and Facebook messages matter! Let's let Congress know that licensing and regulating online poker is an important issue to us by sending prefilled tweets, Facebook, and the newly updated PPA prefilled letter to our elected representatives. Simply either click HERE or the button below.



  2. Download the PPA Black Friday logo, avatar, and banners for your website, forum avatar, and Facebook profile picture. Let's let everyone we are proud to play poker and will never fold! Simply either click HERE or the button below.


  3. Joining the PPA keeps you updated on the latest news with weekly updates, gives you access to great membership benefits, and allows you to support the fight to protect America’s favorite card game. Simply either click HERE or the button below.


  4. Let's send a prefilled tweet promoting today's action plan HERE, and let's share today's action on our own Facebook walls HERE.
Please reply in this thread with "tweeted", "done", etc.to encourage others to participate. The past 198 actions have generated triple-digit participation, so let's keep it growing. Thanks!

Done. I just sent that email to my legislators last week so I'm not sending it again today. I will send it again on the 16th.

It's a new letter (as of yesterday), so the 16th is fine. Thanks!

Last year we had such a list, but I haven't seen anything lately that's updated. There is a list of H.R.2366 co-sponsors here: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...postcount=6614

Oh, and after a little search, I found this. Just keep in mind the original post is no longer completely accurate. http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/57...-list-1045443/
