Senator John Kyl of Arizona is recommending that authorities work faster to implement the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act. Kyl is a well-known supporter of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act and in fact was one of its architects. Thanks to Senator Bill Frist infamously inserting it into a must pass piece of legislation, the UIGEA became law. Kyl is afraid that the UIGEA will never be implemented, as a recent Congressional hearing exposed the UIGEA’s flaws and pressure is growing to scrap the UIGEA.
Senator Kyl is an ultraconservative senator who is well versed in political maneuvering.
