This latest action shows how far big brother will go to protect you
from yourselt. Stand up for freedom and contact your legilators today!
Here's how.
In the late hours of Friday, Sept. 29th, the U.S. Congress pulled a
slick backdoor maneuver bypassing normal due process and passed legislation
that will prohibit US financial institutions from facilitating online
gambling transactions. House and Senate Republicans hastily attached
the legislation to the Port Security Bill, which is considered 'must
pass', and virtually eliminated opportunity to oppose. Once this legislation
is signed by the president, regulators and financial institutions will
be given 270 days to devise and implement new rules to apply this new
regulation.
This legislation is directed at the financial institutions, NOT
the individual operators or website patrons. This legislation
does not make it illegal for you to fund an online gambling account
or to play bingo online. Click
here for more analysis of the bill.
The bill has yet to be signed into law by the president, but is virtually
certain to be so. Most institutions, including ours, are waiting to
see how this new regulation will affect the industry. This will happen
over the 270 implementation period mentioned above. Rest assured we
are committed to providing solutions that will enable you to continue
to play bingo online. We have every intention of ensuring your continued
enjoyment of our online community and games for years to come.
As a fully licensed and regulated gaming company, located and operated
entirely in Costa Rica, we comply fully with the laws and consider
online gambling to be legal under international law.
In the months to come, as further information and guidelines are
made available to financial institutions, we will have a clearer picture
of what payment options will be available to you in the future.
What can you do?
1) Vote. Contact your Federal and State level legislators (House
and Senate) and urge them to safeguard personal freedoms and your right
to play bingo online. It is important that you elect representatives that
you feel will best represent your interests in the House and Senate. Possibly
one of the primary reasons why this bill was passed is because the affected
people don't vote.
2) Write your legislators. Let them know what you think of
them passing this legislation.
