The Senate Indian Affairs Committee will be holding another hearing on Internet gaming on February 9th, and PPA Board Member and 2+2er Patrick "Skallagrim" Fleming will be testifying! Let's all continue to tell the committee that we want them to support our right to play:
- Let's send the Senate Indian Affairs Committee members these NEW tweets: HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE.
- Let's go to the Senate Indian Affairs Committee members' Facebook walls and like all the pro-poker comments -- and post some new ones: HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE.
- Sen. Boozman (R-AL) responded on Facebook yesterday to the concerns of the poker enthusiasts who have been sharing their thoughts on the issue on his Facebook wall! Let's all take a moment to thank the senator for responding to our comments: HERE
- Let's send a NEW prefilled tweet promoting the daily action plan: HERE

If you wish to do more today, let's reach out to the Payroll Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance, and Medicare Physicians Payment Fix Conference Committee via Facebook with respectful requests urging inclusion of federal online poker legislation. Simply like the pro-poker posts and make a short, supportive post of your own. When commenting on preexisting posts, please be sure the post is appropriate for pro-poker comments.

Glad we are hitting up the Indian Hearing but after it's over I think we should really amp up our message to those involved in finding sources of funding to compensate extending the payroll tax cuts.
We need to pitch this to Democrats...
And we especially need to pitch this to Republicans who want alternatives to increasing taxes on the wealthy...
