Poker Forum

Finally some activity that can get the US back into all the poker markets. It's still a long way off but at least this is a step in the right direction.

You didn't mention who is on this committee, so we can contact them before the hearing to let them know this is important

Hi, team2win. It's a good point, but there is a specific explanation. A piece such as this could is designed to be direct reportage, not necessarily opinion/editorial. Excessive lobbying — as in naming all the committee members and making exhortations to go do such-and-such — is generally beyond the scope of such a "straight news" piece.

Nonetheless, Google-ing the committee in question easily uncovers the specific committee members, such as in this link:

Hope that helps!
