Ten U.S. representatives have co-signed HR 5767, a bill introduced by Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) in the House of Representatives last month that would prevent the Unlawful Internet Ganbling Enforcement Act from being implemented.

According to pokerpages.com:

The following congressmen have signed onto the new bill thus far:

Gary L. Ackerman (D-NY)
Shelley Berkley (D-NV)
William Lacy Clay (D-MO)
Bob Filner (D-CA)
Luis V. Gutierrez (D-IL)
Michael Honda (D-CA)
Peter T. King (R-NY)
James McGovern (D-MA)
James Moran (D-VA)
Robert Wexler (D-FL)

Whole thing here.

All ten have already signed Frank’s bill that would legalize and regulate online gambling, although there has been little movement on that legislation.
