It worked for me. I signed it as well.That link does not work.
"U.S. regulation of this global industry"
Really? It may come as surprise, but in the rest of the world people may not always see the US as our natural leaders.
It seems that most of the online poker problems we've had to deal with have been caused by the US position.
If this does if this go through and online poker is legitimized, maybe the US market is big enough to force the existing sites to comply with your rules, but remember, many online poker sites had already decided the US was too difficult to handle even before BF.
Isn't there a danger that you may find your self playing to your rules on US only, government controlled sites
You are mis-reading that. It is requesting regulation for poker in the U.S., and simply stating that poker is a global industry. Not global regulation.
Difficult because of the UIGEA which was passed in 2006--that's when entities like Party left the US market. BF was a result of the UIGEA.
Oh sorry, my bad
lines like this misled me
"Appropriate regulation of online poker will put the U.S. in charge of safeguarding responsible adult players, prevent underage participation and protect those with excessive gaming habits"
the bolded part seems unnecessary and could have been omitted if it wasn't intended
np , good luck with it

Better than not playing at all.
Wake up!!!! Why do you think global poker sites are shutting you out?The rest of the world certainly isn't helping us out. How many global poker sites have US players just been shut out of?

This.
In a perfect world I would like the situation that existed before 2006.
