Top 5 Game Sites Heralds Appointment of Casino Friendly Congressional Representatives

Top 5 Game Sites LLC, a leader in online casino reviews, announces the appointment of several Democratic Representatives to the House of Congress that may be more friendly towards Internet casinos after the Unlawful Internet Gambling Funding Prohibition Act passed recently.

Fargo, ND (PRWEB) March 25, 2007 -- Top5GameSites.com today announced the addition of several casino-friendly Democrats to the United States House of Congress. This is news for the online casino industry in the light of a bill that was signed into law recently which additionally criminalizes the Internet gambling industry, called the Unlawful Internet Gambling Funding Prohibition Act.

Representative Barney Frank (D-Mass.), is one such politician. Frank heads the Financial Services Committee, and he voted against the Unlawful Internet Gambling Funding Prohibition Act bill. The bill was intended to criminalize the use of funds from American financial institutions to pay online casino gambling sites, such as online poker and blackjack rooms.

Some experts speculate that the new Congress may seek to pass laws which allow states to make their own decisions regarding the funding of online casino gambling. This would be comparable to the system for online horse race betting. "I think states will make it a state's rights issue," said Internet gambling expert Nelson Rose, a professor at California's Whittier Law School.

The online casino gambling industry is hopeful. Online poker rooms in Nevada, the casino gambling capital of the United States, are promoting legislation to legalize Internet poker bets for people in California.
