Here's a little more of this article:
"Washington D.C. has been spitting out anti-gambling rhetoric for the last little bit. Bills aimed at making arious forms of online gaming illegal have been bandied about and are going through the arious steps to becoming law; Senators and Representatives are constantly preaching about the damaging effects of gambling, but through it all ery little, if any, of the legislation has actually become law.
It seems almost ironic then, that the “conservative” Eastcoast was beaten to the punch by the laid back, supposedly more liberal Westcoast.
Washington State Senator Margarita Prentice, the chair of the Ways and Means Committee — responsible for developing operating and capital budgets and tax and pension policy — introduced Bill SB 6613 and referred it to the Senate Labor, Commerce, Research and Development Committee, to which she also is a member, on January 17, 2006. The piece of legislation would add to the Gambling Act and aimed to outlaw the running or using of online gambling.
The Bill quickly gained momentum and was offered to the same Committee on February 3, 2006."
