MORE HEARINGS ON THE UIGEA NEXT WEEK

Internet gambling hearing set for Wednesday

Congressman Barney Frank, a Democrat from Massachusetts who chairs the influential House Financial Services Committee, wants to legalise online gambling in the U.S., effectively overturning the 2006 Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) by introducing a regulatory and licensing regime under his Internet Gambling Regulation and Enforcement Act.

A further hearing on his proposal is scheduled for April 2 in Washington, and supporters are being urged to contact their political representatives expressing their support before the hearing.
