Assemblywoman Barbara Matthews of Tracy says her bill would protect cell phone and pager owners from being hit with fees to pay for political messages they didn´t want to receive. State law already bars businesses from sending unsolicited text message ads. Matthews´ bill would extend the ban to political advertisements. It wouldn´t apply to a candidate or campaign committee that had a previously established relationship with the message´s recipient and had offered the recipient an option not to receive the message. A 69 to one vote sent the bill to the state Senate.
