     FCC looks to fine conservative activists $5 million for   
   false mail voting robocalls   
      
   The Federal Communications Commission proposed a $5.1 million fine against   
   conservative activists Jacob Wohl and John Burkman and J.M. Burkman &   
   Associations for making 1,141 unlawful robocalls that made false claims   
   about mail voting, the agency said on Tuesday.   
      
   "Did you know that if you vote by mail, your personal information will   
   be part of a public database that will be used by police departments to   
   track down old warrants and be used by credit card companies to collect   
   outstanding debts?" the call says, before also erroneously claiming the   
   CDC might use such data to enforce mandatory vaccines.
