Over 8700 of us told Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyl, Speaker of the House John Boehner, and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor to take action on legislation to license online poker via the poker petition. As we approach the one year anniversary of Black Friday, let's all take action to make ourselves heard on this matter of our personal liberty.

I sent today's plan out as part of this week's PPA member update, so let's all pitch in to ensure good participation!

- To leverage the impact of the petition, let's send Sen. Reid, Sen. McConnell, Sen. Kyl, Rep. Boehner, and Rep. Cantor prefilled, editable tweets reinforcing the number of signatures: HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE.
- Next, let's post and like pro-poker comments on their Facebook walls HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE. Let's also post HERE (KY residents only). Simply tell them that online poker enthusiasts won't go away or give up and that over 8700 people have signed the poker petition at [URL]http://t.co/bRPNDpl0[/URL]. Let's also ask them to support legislation like HR 2366, the Online Poker Act.

The National Fraternal Order of Police sent Senator Harry Reid, Senator Mitch McConnell, Speaker John Boehner, and Rep. Nancy Pelosi a letter in support of a strong regulatory framework for legal gaming (here)! As FOP supported the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006, this is significant for us.

So, let's tell lawmakers of FOP's support for licensed online gaming (and, by extension, online poker) today:

- Let's send Sen. Reid, Sen. McConnell, Sen. Kyl, Rep. Boehner, Rep. Cantor, Rep. Bono Mack, and Rep. Upton prefilled, editable tweets: HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE.
- Let's post on the Facebook walls HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE. Let's also post HERE (KY residents only). While there, be sure to like the pro-poker posts from yesterday.
