Call your senators about gambling bill

The following are the chief authors of the Port Security Legislation. Call them and ask them to remove the Internet Gambling Language from the Port Securities Bill.

Senator Peter King (R-NY) 202-224-7896

Senator Bennie Thompson (D-MS) 202-224-5876

Senator Ted Stevens (R-AK) 202-224-3004

Senator Joseph Lieberman (D-CT) 202-224-4041

Senator Daniel Inouye (D-HI) 202-224-3931

Please make the call, we may be able to make a difference.

Looks like the place to put this....I had wrote mine before elections , and he finally replied...

Dear Mr.Moore:

Thank you for contacting me regarding legislation strengthening enforcement of laws prohiiting internet gambling. I appreciate hearing from you and having the benefit of your views.

As you may know, the final version of H.R. 954, the Security and Accountability for Every (SAFE) Port Act, which was signed into law on October 13, 2006, included legislation further prohibiting on-line gambling, which is already illegal here in the United States. Unfortunately, illegal online gambling operations had sprouted up overseas, targeting American families and children and directly violating U.S. laws which were written before the Internet was commonplace. With the passage of the SAFE Port ACt, the law enforcement now has the tools needed to prosecute these off shore operations and credit card companies now have the ability to prevent illegal gambling transactions and ensure that U.S. law is observed.

While we may disagree on this particular piece of legislation, please do not hesitate to contact. I look foward to representing you in Congress.

Sincerely,
Henry E. Brown Jr.
Member of Congress


I recieved this letter from him yesterday..I'm glad i didn't vote for him , never have , but he got reelected .Seems like hes got a one sided view when it comes to online poker , which is what I had wrote him about. Well Mr. Brown , all i got to say to you is , It's gonna take more than that to stop me from playin online poker !

Hello Skinski

Thank you for sharing this letter with us.

I disagree with this legislation and it seems there are more reasons for it than God made little green apples.

I do wish some one would put this whole thing in laymans terms so we can all get a good grasp of the whole thing.
