What is the government doing for the legality of internet gaming?
There is legislation in congress at this time to make it totally legal and overturn the UIGEA Kyl Amendment that was passed in 2005 by a Republican congress. Things have changes and within the next few months it is expected the government of the United States will pass new legislation to regulate and tax gaming websites. Something that The Bracket Club fully supports. We urge our members to look over the legislation (links below) and call their representatives and ask them to support it.
