The dependence of elliptic flow at RHIC energies on the effective parton scattering cross section is calculated using the ZPC parton cascade model. We show that the v_2 measure of elliptic flow saturates early in the evolution before the hadronization transition to a rather large value ~0.05-0.15 as \sigma_g varies from 2-10 mb and thus is a sensitive probe of the dynamics in the plasma phase.
