C.A.R. URGES LOCAL IMPAC SUPPORT FOR PROP. 64 TO STOP
SHAKEDOWN LAWSUITS C.A.R. strongly supports Prop.
64 on the Nov. 2 statewide ballot, which will reform the state's
Unfair Competition Law by requiring attorneys to actually
have a client who has been harmed before they can sue a small
business. While the state IMPAC trustees have already contributed
more than $200,000 to help pass Prop. 64, it takes roughly
$15 million to run a successful statewide campaign in California
today. Thus, Californians to Stop Shakedown Lawsuits still
needs help. Local REALTOR® associations are encouraged to
approve local IMPAC funding for Californians to Stop Shakedown
Lawsuits: Yes on Proposition 64. Contribution statements are
available at http://www.stopshakedownlawsuits.com/pdf/contribute.pdf.
REALTORS® may also use this contribution statement to make
personal or business contributions.

NAR SECURES DELAYED EFFECTIVE DATE FOR DO-NOT-FAX
RULES NAR, with help from state associations nationwide,
has successfully secured a six-month delay in the effective
date of new do-not-fax rules from the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC). The extension, which expires June 30, 2005,
was granted to give Congress more time to act on the Junk
Fax Prevention Act, H.R. 4600/S. 2603, bipartisan legislation
NAR has been pushing that would mitigate the problems created
by new do-not-fax rules for consumers and businesses alike.
NAR supports efforts to limit unsolicited faxes, including
a requirement to obtain permission before sending faxes, but
believes that the FCC went too far by requiring signed, written
permission for faxes. The association estimates that over
67 million permission forms would have had to have been created
and stored to sustain the more than 6 million home sales transactions
that occurred last year.
