Illinois telemarketing ban plan would charge for call-restrict list
Legislation would create a five year restricted call registry funded by a up to five dollar fee per household. The Illinois Commerce Commission would administer the list and could levy further charges. Calls would be restricted from July 1, 2003 with some exceptions for existing business relationships and certain professions. Civil penalties would apply for violators, and banks and brokers would be barred from contacting those on the list.
