Top5GameSites.com, a leader in online casino reviews, has announced that the United States House of Congress has recently welcomed a number several casino-friendly Democrats to its ranks.
The move will not doubt be welcomed by American online gambling companies after the introduction of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA), prohibiting financial institutions from processing transactions for American Internet gambling companies, which was passed in late 2006.
