I got this website via mail from another wellknown gambling watchdog site and thought that all US players should add their names to this petition to repeal the unlawful gambling act. Senator Barney Frank is trying to get this law repealed and we all need to help.

Sorry about that. I copied this from the email I received after I signed the petition. Don't know how to make the address tale you there automatically though. I am really computer challenged. smile

anniemac, THANX!!!!! I THINK WE SHOULD ALL DO THIS GUYS, AND MAYBE IT WILL WORK IN OUR FAVOR.....



Repeal Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act
Dear Members of Congress,
As an American, I am outraged to learn that Congress has passed legislation that will severely restrict my ability to have certain freedoms in my own home.

Unfair passage of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act is clearly designed to restrict the freedoms of voters who sent you to office to represent them, and prevent us from making mature decisions about how we spend our leisure time and money.

I am further outraged to learn that the bill was added at a late hour to the Safe Port Security Bill without the ability of debate and only 15 minutes prior to a vote on a must pass bill.
It is improper for Congress to declare itself the overseer of American Morals and to enact legislation that dictates ideology instead of common sense.

The United States, in so enacting this law, has willfully violated World Trade Organization rules and the WTO has ruled against the United States on this issue, in favor of the country of Antigua. Now the European Union is considering similar action as this is seen globally as protectionism.

I urge you to use your considerable power and influence to ensure that this unfair legislation is repealed post haste, and our right to freedom is preserved.

I understand and agree that by signing this petition, I am in favor of the repeal of the UIGEA

BARNEY FRANK" />

Well for a change, I'm proud to be from my home state of Massachusetts. Thanks to someone who has the guts to take on a controversial issue and stand up for it. He is totally right, why should they be able to police what we do in our home?????? On top of it all they did it at the eleventh hour to sneak it by.

Thanks Barney Frank, you always seem to come through for everyone that looks to you for help. And now you're extending yourself to helping the rest of the country.

Go Barney!!!!!!!!!
