2003 Senate Bill 5033
Introduced by Sen. Jim Kastama, (D-Puyallup) (D) on January 13, 2003
To direct the Department of Licensing to establish and operate a list of individuals who object to receiving commercial telephone solicitations. The list shall be called the “do not call list.” The department shall update the list quarterly and provide the list to commercial telephone solicitors for a reasonable fee. With this bill, no commercial telephone solicitor may make a commercial telephone solicitation to any telephone number more than sixty days after the number appears on the current do not call list. The bill states any solicitation company that violates this act may be charged up to one thousand dollars per violation, plus court costs and attorneys' fees.   Official Text and Analysis.
Referred to the Senate Technology and Communications Committee on January 13, 2003
But the bill did not receive a hearing by the cutoff date so it is considered a “dead bill” (although technically the bill could become active at any time during the 2003-2004 session).
