Meet your Member of Congress in August
 We’re fast approaching the August Congressional recess. This is typically the time when Members of Congress have the opportunity to spend time in their districts and meet with you, their constituents, and participate in a variety of public events, including townhall meetings. Townhalls are a great opportunity for poker players and advocates to participate in the most basic form of representative government by interacting with your Member of Congress on issues important to you. The PPA has put together a useful guide that gives you the ins and outs of learning about townhall meetings. Please click here to learn more about how you can be an August Advocate for poker.
Weekly Update from Rich Muny, VP of Player Relations
I am happy to report that Congressman Joe Barton’s (R-TX) Online Poker Act continues to gain cosponsors. This is largely due to the efforts of the poker community to tell our elected representatives that we care deeply about this issue, so let’s all keep this up. It is up to each of us to tell Congress that we demand our rights as poker players and enthusiasts. No one else will do it for us, so please visit the PPA Take Action page and take action today!
The PPA wishes to keep active members like yourself updated on the latest poker advocacy news by periodically sending out select events and headlines. We hope you find it informative and thank you for your continuing support.
