Sen. Feinstein is F rated by PPA. She's cosponsored every online poker ban since the late '90s and is openly hostile to the game. Sen. Boxer's position isn't as clear now, regarding CA licensing. Otherwise, CA isn't drawing as much opposition now, as your state is openly debating whether to have it or not.

Saturday completed. Let's battle for our rights to play the game we love! It's so damn ridiculous, all the stupid restrictions in the land of the "free." Poker was made what is today in large part thanks to the US and it is a huge part of our history. I think that poker is more the America's favorite pastime even more than baseball for a lot of people. It irks me that we still have to fight to be able to play a game. So silly.

how to join the fight in georgia

When we fight together, we help the fight in all states. The more states that come on board, the better we are. We need a few dominoes to fall to bring on many more states, IMO. A good example is the Georgia Lottery's complaints against HR 707. Without organized opposition, they may not be as emboldened.

So, please participate in the DAP each day. We target where the action is, and we do get to each state. In addition, be sure to phone and write your governor, senators, and congressman. Visit www.theppa.org to get started. Thanks!

Tweets don't post to their Twitter pages, so no worries there. Rather, they receive them in their feeds and cannot erase tweets. They can block us, but few do.

Well done everyone! Glad we're all telling lawmakers that they can't sell us out for campaign contributions.
