Let's continue telling the Payroll Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance, and Medicare Physicians Payment Fix Conference Committee to include online poker in their discussions. The committee needs to resolve this matter by the end of February, so the timing is perfect for us. Rumors are flying about this on all the poker forums, so let's do our part to stand up for this!
- Let's send the Conference Committee members + Sen. Reid & Sen. McConnell NEW tweets urging inclusion of federal online poker legislation: HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE.
- Let's post and like pro-poker comments on the Facebook walls of Conference Committee members Rep. Fred Upton and Rep. Tom Reed: HERE, HERE, and HERE.
Please reply in this thread with "tweeted", "done", etc. to encourage others to participate. The past 151 actions have generated triple-digit participation, so let's keep it growing. Thanks!

If you wish to do more today, let's reach out to the Senate Indian Affairs Committee membership via Facebook with respectful requests for them to support poker at the 2/9 hearing. Simply like the pro-poker posts and make a supportive post of your own.
When commenting on preexisting lawmaker posts, please be sure the post is appropriate for pro-poker comments.
