If you google "HR 2267 amendments you get your post" as no.1 LOL
I watched the 1st part pre-recess cuz work was quiet LDO
, made these notes and thought might as well share, although undoubtely been covered in this thread.
1st(?) amendment seems to suggest FTP/Stars may have a harder time to get a licence but it did say broke existing laws and the sites have rightly claimed that existing laws i.e wire act don't even mention poker/skill games.
+1 on Mrs Bortmann using outs in her discussion
To prevent a schism with alot of exisiting (offshore LDO) operators that may fear not gaining a licence and support status quo, what about and an amendment to place initial fines/not allowed to startup for say 6mths on
those that the future licensing commitee deem to have have broken existing laws proportional to their intentional/unintentional rule breaking seems fair and reasonable.
Go go barney defending freedom for citizens to access internet.
opt-in/out amendment looks scary imo, glad got defeated (I think hard to hear on votes).
Mr cleaver probably will have the soundbite for the papers LDO, plus for non supporters the freedom argument is really key IMHO.

I've said it before but Barney Frank is rly sharp and sometimes funny.
Also I don't quite understand all the h8 for Mr. Bachus though his poor logic is tilting. Almost all legislation has opposition would you rather he was the proponent and Barney was against this Bill ?
