I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Chairman. if a company places an unauthorized call to your household and you are on the donotcall list. it is $11.000 for that call. DirecTV will be paying $5.3 million in fines for basically calling 484 households. Under the present scheme of the underlying bill. an employer could hire 1.066 undocumented workers Illegally employed by that employer and pay that amount of money. As you increase the fine schedule. you could still hire 533 at the next level. Even at your highest level of $25.000. after you have a cease and desist order. you can still hire 213.
