    what does today's supreme court decision in the citizens united case mean for online poker? it seems like this would allow poker sites to advertise in favor of cadidates who support online gambling, will they?

    I'm pretty sure companies outside the US cannot get involved and I don't think this decision changed that.

    Harrah's backs us as well. It will be interesting to see if they get involved.

    PPA works with Harrah's already, so we're fine there. Harrah's does strongly support getting online poker done, and they seem to have a sense of urgency about it as well.

    Emails to lawmakers are always beneficial. If you not recently sent them, please visit http://capwiz.com/pokerplayersalliance/home.
