Wednesday afternoon, I received a call from WUNC radio, the local NPR affiliate, asking me for a comment about a bill that was introduced into the legislature.
I had no idea about the bill, which I have since found out has the short title of "Option to Stop Junk Mail."
A close reading of the bill at http://www.ncleg.net/gascripts/BillLookUp/BillLookUp.pl?Session=2007&BillID=H1699 indicates that someone sending 25 Christmas cards could be in violation of the law.
This bill, if enacted, would be big blow to my business -- and many others. I contacted the Direct Marketing Association who gave me information, which I have posted on my website at http://www.marketplace-mail.com/directory/merchant/147/594.
There is a convention on May 2 of the Greater Triangle Postal Customer Council. Look at http://triangleareapcc.com/ for more information.
I am trying to figure out how to block this bill by forming a coalition of printers, mailers, mailing houses, small business, graphic artists, postal employees, etc. to stop this bill.
