Petition sponsor and spokesperson for Casino Gambling Web, Gordon Price, said, "Let us explain that this is not about Internet gambling, so much as it is about the United Stated government taking away another one of the rights of the people."

The following is part of the petition statement that will be signed and delivered to all members of congress:

'As an American, I am outraged to learn that congress has passed legislation that will severely restrict my ability to have certain freedoms in my own home.'

'Unfair passage of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act is clearly designed to restrict the freedoms of voters who sent you to office to represent them, and prevent us from making mature decisions about how we spend our leisure time and money.'

'It is improper for congress to declare itself the overseer of American morals and to enact legislation that dictates ideology instead of common sense.'

'I urge you to use your considerable power and influence to ensure that this unfair legislation is repealed post haste, and our right to freedom is preserved.'
