I would request that no provisions be made that would enable corporations to once again disrupt our homelife and reduce our precious family time. If there are businesses with which I maintain a relationship, I can contact them if I need information. I am sure that when this list went into effect there were people that lost their jobs. Now that these payrolls have been reduced, you are considering letting these companies call us with pre-recorded messages! How convenient for those companies - to be able to reduce their workforces and be able, through a loophole, to regain their ability to invade our home lives. We all got alot of pre-recorded messages leading up to the election - I can certainly state that those messages are just as intrusive. I will go so far as to say that if this passes and I receive calls and pre-recorded messages. I will use those calls to develop my list of businesses that I will be sure not to patronize. Please do not allow this to pass. Thank you.
