Suggesting that the federal Can-Spam Act of 2003 doesn’t pack a big enough punch to curtail electronic mail spam, state lawmakers around the country are creating their own regionalized antispam laws. The New Jersey legislature is the most recent to join the movement to toughen antispam regulations. The two-tiered legislature in New Jersey has bills pending in both the senate and the assembly. The senate introduced a can-spam bill February 9th. This week, an assembly committee approved a similar version of that bill. Lawmakers hope to have a final vote and the governor’s signature by year’s end.
