California Assemblyman Mike Gatto has introduced a new internet poker bill for consideration in the coming legislative session. It looks a lot like previous bills, and will have supporters and detractors.
Briefly, it does contain a 'bad actors' provision that will keep pokerstars, even under the new ownership, out of the market. It also excludes the horse racing industry, which will no doubt bring opposition from them as well.
Here's the bill, I warn you though, it is a wall of text.
