The Poker Players Alliance is an organization that aims to uphold the rights of online cash and MTT poker and of online poker players. The alliance was created to speak on behalf of poker players and to attempt to secure legislation that protects online poker, while reminding the population that there are plenty of legal us poker rooms.
 
The PPA was established in 2005 and experienced rapid growth. More than 600,000 Americans became members of the alliance in its first year, registering their support for online poker and arguing against unfair legislation that tried to restrict their access to PokerStars Marketing Codes. Since its conception over one million members have joined the Alliance, persuaded by highly regarded PPA board members such as Greg Raymer, Howard Lederer and Chris Ferguson - who play on the biggest money poker sites all year round.
 
Their mission is to "establish favorable laws that provide poker players with a secure, safe and regulated place to play." Playing online poker is not against the law but laws such as the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act have made it increasingly difficult for US poker players, with many poker rooms no longer allowing US players to join. There are few really big online games left, Daniels Room Poker being one of the newest. The PPA lobbies against this kind of legislation, terming it "egregious government intervention" and is instead in support of laws which will allow poker players an environment in which they'll be able to continue to play their game. You can access updates in the form of free poker videos on the progress of the PPA%u2019s lobbying efforts.
