Thanks GJS and Kenny. Thanks for posting Sen. Warren's reply. Funny how out-of-date it is. The DoJ revised its opinion in late 2011.

SATURDAY POKER ACTION PLAN: Make pro-poker comments on an Adelson-placed article

**** Saturday #Fight4Poker ****

• Let's send pro-poker tweets to five Senate Judiciary Committee members, either with the prefilled verbiage as-is or individualized via a quick edit. Verbiage can be as simple as copying & pasting one of the following examples, but try to edit even these a bit:
- Please oppose legislation that shuts down state-authorized poker websites. Thank you. #InternetFreedom
- For consumer protection, mandated age verification & personal liberty, please support state-licensed poker websites.
⇒ Sen. Richard Blumenthal [D-CT]: http://spredd.it/l902UFYS

⇒ Sen. Dick Durbin [D-IL]: http://spredd.it/9LwafMKG
⇒ Sen. Dianne Feinstein [D-CA]: http://spredd.it/74a6cd85
⇒ Sen. Al Franken [D-MN]: http://spredd.it/15t57O6T

• Let's keep making & liking pro-poker comments on an anti-poker article by Adelson's Coalition to Stop Internet gambling. Be sure to click the "add a comment" link at the top of the comment section rather than using the "add a response" at the bottom:

• Please tweet, share & favorite today's action plan, and please reply here with "done", "tweeted," "posted," etc. to encourage others:

Thanks GJS and Kenny! As for Sen. Warren, you may wish to send her (or call her office with) info on the 2011 Wire Act, but our letters are really to show lawmakers support for our position. You did that very well, so we're good there IMO. Rather than a reply, I'd call and reiterate your desire for her to support your right to play.

Thanks again!
