I saw that the text of the amendments is now posted on the Committee's web site (http://financialservices.house.gov/Hearings/hearingDetails.aspx?NewsID=1340), but it would be nice to see it all put together.

Now how long does it take to get to the next step? Who is going to determine who was illegal and who was not? This should move fast so the Big Indian Tribes and the Big Casinos don't have a chance to grease the palms of politicians. Does the UIGEA still have enforcement value? Ok so this passes today.

Who is going to determine who was illegal and who was not?

This should move fast so the Big Indian Tribes and the Big Casinos don’t have a chance to grease the palms of politicians.

Does the UIGEA still have enforcement value?
