Will you take a few moments to stand up for poker? These items take just ten seconds each to complete. Click your mouse and lose your nanny in the House...and the Senate! Let's focus on deficit super committee member Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) today:
  1. Send a prefilled, editable pro-poker Twitter message HERE.
  2. "Like" the main FB page HERE, then click HERE to post a comment in support of Internet poker.
    • Either cut-and-paste, "Please ask the deficit super committee to support HR 2366, the Online Poker Act. This bill raises $$$ without raising taxes. Thank you." or write your own.
    • Be sure to “like” the other pro-poker comments!
Please reply in this thread with "tweeted", "done", etc. to encourage others to participate as well. The past ELEVEN actions have generated triple-digit participation, so let's keep it growing. Thanks!

It looks like something temporary. Just right-click and select "open in new tab." I hope this gets resolved soon. I'll keep an eye on it and will update the action if needed.

Ok, y'all must be at work or something because there were only 3 comments to like after 12 hours. So, I'll go back in another 8 hours to like the hundreds of new comments that will be there on Clyburn's page! Gogogogogogogo.

Pappas and I noticed this earlier today as well. It's nice, but it's only for Montana residents. PPA will put an alert out to our MT membership. In the meantime, hopefully ALL MT residents here will submit pro-poker ideas.
