In their continuing efforts to be the only group who lobbys for the rights of online poker players, the PPA has put out a Congressional Rating Guide. Since 2006 the PPA has met with nearly all members of Congress to educate them about the skill game of internet poker, as well as get their opinions on the subject. The PPA continues to advocate the promote the licensing and regulation of online poker, as opposed the the groups that want to abolish it.
The PPA’s Congressional Rating Guide gives each member of Congress a letter grade, based upon their position and opinion of internet poker. You can find this guide at www.congressionalpoker.org It is an easy to use guide where members are rating with an A-F. These ratings are based on sponsor-ship of bills, letters of support, public statements and private meetings with the PPA, so it is not just a casual arbitrary rating. It is based on real information that should show how each member really feels about the subject of internet poker.
You can search this guide on a state by state basis and another very nice feature is that you can actually send an email to your Congressional Rep directly from the website. This way you can let them know how you feel about their grade, be it good or bad. A short note encouraging a positive stance on poker or a note letting them know they need to rethink their position may be appropriate. Either way, this is a great tool to find out where the members of Congress in your state stand on the subject of online poker.
Kudos again to the PPA for coming up with this rating guide. For too long the subject of online poker has had nothing but negative voices assailing it in our government. The PPA has given us excellent tools to use to contact our elected officials and let them know that we do care about their support of our pastime.
