CNET tech sites: Price comparisons Product reviews Tech news Downloads ... Site map Direct marketers want anti-spam laws By Declan McCullagh Staff Writer, CNET News.com October 21, 2002, 3:48 PM PT The Direct Marketing Association said Monday that unsolicited e-mail has become so noxious that a federal anti-spam law is finally necessary. Until now, the DMA has opposed the majority of anti-spam bills in Congress or offered only lukewarm support. But the ever-rising tide of junk e-mail has made the influential trade association rethink its stand. "Even legitimate business' messages are not being looked at because of the get-rich-quick schemes and pornography and so forth," Jerry Cerasale, the DMA's vice president for government affairs, said in a telephone interview Monday afternoon. The DMA's change of heart, which comes as the group meets in San Francisco for its 85th annual convention this week, means that a sizable obstacle to federal legislation has vanished. The DMA, along with its allies at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the National Retail Federation, have previously scuttled some anti-spam laws from being enacted by Congress.

How Things REALLY Work in Washington and Raleigh The North Carolina Legislature North Carolina has a legislature composed of two houses ­ the Senate and the House of Representatives. This is called a bicameral legislature, meaning that it consists of two chambers. The North Carolina Legislature is also known as the General Assembly. It meets in regular session in odd-numbered years (1999, 2001, 2003, etc.) beginning at noon on the third Wednesday following the second Monday in January. In even-numbered years, the General Assembly convenes its second regular session in May or early June for approximately two months. The primary reason for holding the "short session" as it is often called is to make adjustments in the budget for the second year of the biennium (two-year session) and to complete action on matters that were still pending when the first regular session adjourned.
