You just might want to note that the legislation is co-written with a Democrat.
“Goodlatte Introduces Internet Gambling Prohibition Act
Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) and Rep Rick Boucher (D-VA) today called a press conference to announce their introduction of legislation aimed at prohibiting gambling via the Internet and other remote means. Called the Internet Gambling Prohibition Act, the bill seeks to update the federal Wire Act to cover all forms of gambling and technologies. Upon the bill’s introduction it was referred to the House Judiciary Committee, on which Goodlatte and Boucher are both members, for further consideration.”
The good news is that the new majority leader John Boehner is not a co-sponsor of the bill.
