============
If you wish to do more today, let's continue action on the “We the People” Poker Petition to President Obama:
We the People is a new addition to the White House website that allows Americans to petition the Obama Administration on a range of issues. Per the site, “if a petition gets enough support, White House staff will review it, ensure it is sent to the appropriate policy experts, and issue an official response.”
This is a great way for us to ensure the administration hears from the poker community, so let’s all take a moment to sign the petition electronically.
The site is getting a lot of traffic, so you may get either a "site is under maintenance" or a "404 not found" message. Just try it a few times and you'll get through. Even with this slight delay, it should take less than one minute to complete:
- Go HERE and click "CREATE AN ACCOUNT."
- The site will send a confirmation email. Click on the link in that email to continue.
- Click "✔ SIGN THIS PETITION" to vote (if you are not redirected automatically, go HERE to vote).
- Send a prefilled, editable Twitter message to invite others to sign this petition HERE.
- Send a prefilled tweet promoting today's action plan HERE.
- Be sure to tell your friends and family about this.
