That statement is far less than accurate. The UIGEA is a [B][U]law[/U][/B], enacted by Congress and only Congress, through modification or revocation, and the President, through signature or veto, have the power to change or revoke the law. Technically, the Attorney General [B][U]has to[/U][/B] enforce the law, whether he/she agrees with it or not. How zealously they pursue that enforcement may be up to them, but enforce it they must as long as it is on the books.
 
Still got to get 218+ Representatives and 51 Senators to vote to revoke, modify or otherwise deal with this piece of crap legislation. Go to the Poker Players Alliance Congressional Rating website [[URL]http://www.congressionalpoker.org/][/URL] and check out your congresscritters (might also join up while you are there:) ). If they are pro-poker, encourage them to keep up the good work. If they are anti- or uncommitted, rag on them. You would be surprised how much effect even a small "flood" of emails can have on one of these creatures. After all, Job #1 for them for the next 2-6 years is to get re-elected.
