It was expected and everyone except for Barney Frank was saying it and now a report from his office proves that the discussions on the bill will be postponed. Congressman Barney Frank presented the bill headed on the Internet Gambling Regulation Consumer Protection & Enforcement Act, in early May. In a discussion earlier this week Barney Frank had confirmed that the bill would be passed through the House Financial Services Committee and will be put before the House of Representatives later this year and he assured to get it done.

The economic crisis, however, had ruined the bill and the legislation needed to direct this emergency and be given first priority. So huge is this workload that the bill had to be kept on hold maybe until September. According to the agenda given now the bill will be put forward in the House Financial Services Committee in September and would pass before the full House of Representatives in the next Congress session.

The online gambling industries have a lot of hope on this bill with the restrictions on USA casino deposits being withdrawn, especially with the recent outlook of the Department of Justice. The Department of Justice has recently stopped funds that were meant to pay the customers of online gambling operators which will know without doubt have a free hand for an extended period of time. With the legislative doors closed for a while, the online gambling industry’s hopes lie in the legal struggle. The first and most vital of these is planned for July in Philadelphia and the bill in the meanwhile will continue to gather support. Lawmakers are made to understand that the people want the rights to gamble online and many of these lawmakers have switched positions since they nominated the UIGEA into law.
