I plan on sending an e-mail to some of the key legislators, including the Gov's office but I do not live in NY so it may fall on deaf ears. The only thing I can threaten is to stop going to the NY tracks and stop investing in NY Breds.

Even if someone could draft a form letter that people could send to their legislators and the govenor that could have an impact.

Just a thought.
Holland,

I live in Arizona, but plan on drafting a letter to some of those key legislators in NY over this. While the tracks are in New York, they need to hear from the rest of the world who bet the races, and therefore contribute to NY Racing.

I spend a great deal of time keeping up with legislative issues, and this is one that is the hottest right now...
