On May 24th, 2011, the Poker Players Alliance (PPA) will be holding an emergency “fly-in” to Washington, D.C., to make the case for regulated online poker in the U.S. Approximately 30 of PPA’s State Directors will meet with targeted lawmakers and ask them pass legislation to license and regulate online poker.
We hope you can join this effort. We are asking our entire membership to meet with their congressional delegation on this day either in Washington, D.C., or in the state district offices for their federal lawmakers.
The PPA will be providing the tools and information you need to arrange and execute those meetings either in Washington D.C. or back home in your congressional delegations district offices. Please click here to find the contact information for your members of Congress, as well as instructions on how to request and successfully secure a meeting.
We encourage every PPA member to meet with their members of Congress on May 24th and request that if you secure a meeting to please email the national office at dcflyin@theppa.org and let us know the details.
Please check our website regularly for updates, talking points and other information to help prepare for your meetings with your congressional delegation.
Proud to play,
Senator Alfonse D’Amato
PPA Chairman
