Introduced
by
To require the Public Service Commission to create a “do not mail” list that commercial mailers would be required to obtain and honor. Citizens who do not wish to receive product or service solicitations through the mail could register to be on the list, and mailers would be prohibited from sending to them. Mailers would have to pay for access to the list. There would be exceptions for charities, existing customer relationships, etc. The bill also imposes content regulations and prohibitions on commercial mail solicitations. Violations by a mailer would be subject to a $500 fine and up to six months in jail.
Referred to the Committee on Commerce
