Done!!!

Let's keep pushing for our freedoms! With the Delaware Senate passing an online gaming bill, we have a nice shot at other states following AND at the federal government getting prodded into action. Let's keep pushing both sides forward!

1. Let's send prefilled, fully editable tweets to Sen Reid, Sen. Kyl, and Sen. McConnell: HERE, HERE, and HERE
2. Let's send the House Subcommittee for Commerce, Manufacturing, and Trade members these prefilled, editable tweets requesting a markup for HR 2366, reminding them that states won't wait for them: HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE.
3. Let's send a prefilled tweet promoting today's action plan HERE (or retweet HERE), and let's share the action on our own Facebook walls HERE and via Google+ HERE.

Please reply in this thread with "tweeted", "shared", "done", etc. to encourage others. Thanks for participating!

Sent that tweet like a horse bolting out of an open barn door!

.... with similar analysis of what you are requesting ?

Do you REALLY want a federal Office of Internet Poker Oversight created within the Federal Department of Commerce ?

Do you really want to slog it out again on the Hill for another year trying to pass a bill which cuts lotteries out of the market for two years, even if they are key to licensing within certain States ?

We still want Federal action IMO.

However, why dont we add tweets to Delaware lawmakers as well pushing for them to pass I-poker legislation?

DonkeyQuilottery,

State lotteries are not underrepresented on the Hill. They are pushing their agenda, as you are more than well aware. We need to push our position here as well.

First, in THIS thread, "We" is not the PPA and whatever agenda its undisclosed financial backers allow. I don't see any reason why "our position" as poker players has to seek to cut out jurisdictions where the prime poker legislation mover simply does not fund the PPA or fund the AGA, for that matter.

Poker is poker. Passing legislation, or even trying to influence it, whatever your personal anti-socialist agenda, may require working with Lotteries who already are pushing State level online gaming/poker bills, with or without player input..

If "our agenda" is to get online poker legislation passed, then it should not be captive to either casino-backers or your personal political distaste for what you think is "evil soclialism".

I am not a fanboy for lotteries, or casinos, or the PPA or CPAC for that matter; I am a realist about how to pass/influence poker legislation through the various States. FWIW, I am not paid by any lottery interests nor do I even play the lottery.

Think up some action plans in support of your pro-lottery agenda, then.

LOL! As if anyone was suggesting that you support lotteries because you enjoy playing them.
