Republican Joe Barton who introduced the 'Internet Poker Freedom Act of 2013'in America has the full backing of the PPA (PokerPlayers Alliance).Executive Director of the PPA.John Pappas says he is looking forward to working with Congressman Joe Barton, as the bill is forwarded to The House of Representatives.

Individual states do have the freedom of online poker and it has basically been left up to the individual states to make their own decisions regarding this form of internet gambling, but the Federal Government are the ones who have been dragging their heels.

The US Senate will be sitting again today the 17th of July 2013 to discuss online poker under 'The Expansion of internet Gambling and assesing consumer protection. In 2006 Federal Government banned online poker, but five years later they reliquished it and allowed states to determine their own Poker laws. Is this now the time to push this issue further and allow the people to decide what they would prefer rather than be dictated to on what they are or not allowed to have and do?????
