PPA
In Action: Washington
State
Rally
 On May 15 nearly
80 PPA members including Andy Bloch and Barry Greenstein
rallied against a state law that makes it a felony to play
poker on the Internet. This ridiculous law is being challenged
in court by PPA State Director Lee Rousso. On the 15th the
court upheld the law, but Mr. Rousso has pledged to appeal the
decision. Click here
to get more information about the rally and the latest news on
the law.

Are
You A Lawyer? Poker Players Need You!
 Poker Players
Alliance launched its Litigation
Support Network. We are asking PPA members and
non-members who are attorneys to join this network of lawyers
who are willing to assist PPA members in need of counsel in
civil and criminal poker related matters. If you are a
lawyer with expertise or interest in gaming law become part of
our referral network today!
The PPA has appointed PPA New Hampshire State Director Patrick
Flemming (aka Skallagrim) to serve as the Litigation Support
Director. Through our legal page on the Web site, PPA members
who are in need of poker related legal advice can ask Mr.
Flemming. He will be able to provide top-line advice and then
refer members to lawyers in their area who are part of the
Litigation Support Network.
The Litigation Support Network is just another example of how
the PPA is serving the needs of the poker community.
