Dear
CHARLES,
Just
one week after a historic election the Poker Players Alliance is pitted
in a fight to keep anti-Internet poker regulations from being enacted
and we NEED YOUR HELP!
The current Administration is hastily finalizing a number of
“midnight rules” before they leave office and the Unlawful
Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) is on the list. See the
11/06 story in Dow Jones. Just like UIGEA was
snuck into legislation in the dark of night in 2006, our opponents are
again trying an 11th hour sneak job. We need you to help us
expose and stop this reckless rulemaking.
Please call the U.S. Federal Reserve and tell them not to approve the
UIGEA regulations -- Consumer Complaints, 888-851-1920 or Public Affairs, 202-452-2955.
Tell them:
The federal agencies responsible for our
nation’s economy should not be focused on Internet poker
regulations.
Finalization of the UIGEA rules will add additional
burdens on our already crippled financial systems.
Internet poker is a game of skill and form of
recreation for millions of Americans; it should be exempted from the
UIGEA.
Please do not finalize the UIGEA regulations until
their impact on our banking systems and average Americans has been
fully studied.
Tell us how the call went by clicking here.
Your call will make a huge difference and will add the public’s
voice to these last minute policy decisions our government is poised to
make. We can’t stand idly by while they make decisions that
will impact our right to play America’s card
game. PLEASE CALL TODAY!
Proud to play,
Alfonse D’Amato, Chairman
Poker Players Alliance
