Default Another Internet gambling bill in the US ...

And this one actually has a decent shot at passing, according to the Industry experts that Buzzy has been talking to ...

http://www.thomas.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/D?d110:9:./temp/~bd2rEI:/bss/d110query.html|

If passed, this bill (sponsored by Nevada Rep. Shelley Berkley) would commission a study on Internet gambling and whether it could be regulated and whether licensed companies would be able to prevent underage gamblers from playing, etc. etc. etc.

Not much to report yet, haven't found full text of the bill, but it is likely very similar to H.R. 5474, which was submitted in the House last year ...

Hi Buzzy... couldnt see that page because I think it is a temporary file when you do a search. However, if you click on the "Search Bill text" link on the homepage and search for gambling there is a H.R.2046 which seems to be what you are talking about...

Sorry about the bad link Wouter. It looks like the way this site is set up, the links may time out after a certain point. The one below will work for a while. As soon as full text of H.R. 2140 (Berkley's bill) becomes available, we'll post a permanent link.

Thanks.

Vin

Or DOES he? ...

The Buzz will never reveal his identity. It's one of the world's great mysteries that will never be able to solved, like "Was there another shooter in the Kennedy assisination?" or "How was Stonehenge built?" Or perhaps the greatest mystery of all, "Why was Rocky V ever released?"
