"Online gambling regulations bill approved by House committee
28 July 2010
By Vin Narayanan
In a 41-22-1 vote, the House Financial Services Committee approved a bill Wednesday that would license and regulate online gambling in the United States."
"Frank's bill still has several hurdles it needs to clear before it can become law. First the full House needs to vote on it. That vote is not likely to happen before the House's August break begins in two weeks (Aug. 9) and during the lame-duck session of Congress after the November elections. That means it has to pass a full floor vote between Sept. 7 and Oct. 8. In order for a full vote to happen, the Democratic leadership in the House, led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), needs to schedule it.
If the House passes the bill, then it needs to be taken up by the Senate. If it is passed by both the House and the Senate, then it will need to be signed by President Obama. All of this needs to happen this year, before the end of the legislative session. If it doesn't happen before the end of this year's legislative session, the process will have to start over next year -- when the makeup of both the House and the Senate will be different."

That is merely a COMMITTEE VOTE and is NOT any kind of change in the federal law. It's a start but changes NOTHING! Can you people not read or did you sleep through that part of class?
