I had a business trip around D.C. so I stopped
in to visit the staffs of Rep. Davis, Sen. McConnell, and Sen. Bunning
to tell them we demand our liberty!  The visits went well and were productive. I went with John Pappas and two lobbyists.
We had good discussions on our issues as well as other issues with
UIGEA that impact other interests, like banks and horse racing.
Please keep writing. We're being heard!
Hey Kyl! Poker players are fighting back, and we won't quit until we have our liberty.

After working in Baltimore all day Tuesday, I
went down to D.C. to attend the 4th Annual Bad Beat on Cancer Texas
Hold ‘em Poker Tournament (a very good cause). Several pro
players attended, as did a few congressmen. Skallagrim was there. I had
never met him in person, so that was really cool. He's just as
passionate about our rights in person as he is on the forums.
Skallagrim, Chris Ferguson, and me
A+ rated Congressman Bobby Scott and me
PPA and poker in general were well-represented at the event. It was
an excellent evening for poker and for finding a cure for cancer.

Poker players have sent over 30,000 letters to Congress since the letter at www.pokerplayersalliance.org/letter
was updated (that was April 9). I printed out the ones that were sent
to Sen. McConnell prior to meeting with his staff. When I brought in a
stack of hundreds of letters, it made a real impression. I also
brought a letter signed by the entire Kentucky PPA state committee,
demonstrating the level of organization in the state.
They
really are working. Please keep them coming. Once you've written, get
your friends and family to write. And, remember to register to vote so
you can vote for your freedoms in November.
