Bill HR 6870 Passed

Hi Michael,

Good news, the House Financial Services Committee has passed HR 6870, a bill to protect your right to play poker at the time and place of your choice.

This reform legislation passed in the committee with a bipartisan majority of 30-19. Its provisions are to prevent federal officials from banning "unlawful internet gambling" until they can define what this phrase means. It will also require an economic impact study of the costs associated with this proposed prohibition.
