The proposed Bill No. 6052 aims to regulate direct-to-consumer sales solicitations conducted in person. It mandates the Department of Consumer Protection to create and maintain a database that allows consumers to opt out of such solicitations and to accept complaints related to them. Additionally, individuals engaged in these solicitations are required to regularly check this database to avoid contacting consumers who have opted out, provide advance written notice to local municipalities and law enforcement about the solicitation's location and timeframe, and publicly post guidelines for salespersons' conduct to ensure transparency and consumer identification.
Furthermore, the bill empowers the Department of Consumer Protection to impose fines for violations of these regulations and prohibits individuals convicted of certain violent felonies from participating in direct-to-consumer sales solicitations. The proposed changes aim to enhance consumer protection and ensure that sales practices are conducted in a responsible and transparent manner.
