Assembly Bill 314 (AB 314, Moore), will be heard in the California Assembly's Committee on Utilities and Commerce on MONDAY, MAY 6th, at 1:30 PM in the State Capitol. AB 314, introduced by Committee Chairwoman Gwen Moore (D-L.A.), would require that all residential telephone customers receiving Caller ID service be offered per-line blocking, free of charge. AB 314 also deals with automatic number identification (ANI) service used with "800" and "900" telephone services. It would require customers to be notified that use of the "800" or "900" number may cause their telephone numbers to be revealed. This bill faces heavy opposition from the telephone and telemarketing industries. If you would like to testify on this legislation, please contact Randy Chinn, consultant to Assemblywoman Moore, at 916-445-4246 voice, or 916-324-6862 fax. --
