According
to recent information released by the Poker Players Alliance, more than a
million poker players, supporters and fans from all over the United States have
joined the group in an effort to revert the UIGEA and create a legislation that grants players their right to play poker. The PPA has also launched a voter
registration program that will keep its members informed about the electoral situation
and started a political action committee (PAC) that will hopefully work as a
bridge between the poker community and the Congress. The Poker Players Alliance
started as a non profit organization that advocates for the legalization of
poker in all its forms, the group is comprised by poker aficionados, lawyers and full
staff of experts in the area including professional poker players and
former congressmen.
