OPW – Mar 19 – The Maryland State legislature recently caused quite an uproar, when a few Maryland locals found out about a proposed Bill, that could potentially render problems for the online dating industry. The International Marriage Brokers Bill was proposed in such a manner that it could have very easily evaded the public eye. However, Maryland local Michael Parrotte, has been hard at work trying to spread the word about the Bills regulations. Parrotte, who has been leading the charge on preventing House Bill 65 and Senate Bill 129, has asked for help from the industry. SB129 is scheduled to be heard by the Economic Matters Committee, on Wednesday, March 24th at 1 p.m. Parrotte will be compiling and delivering letters for anyone who wishes to participate in fighting the Bills. Each person's testimony should have the Bill Number with “support or oppose” (Oppose SB129) (Oppose HB65) in bold on the top right of the first page of the testimony. Testimony should be brief and limited to one page if possible. You can reach Parrotte with your letter VIA email, at michael@agvsport.com.
