DO NOT Call Act

Bill 118 s 3324, also known as the DO NOT Call Act, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The purpose of this bill is to strengthen and expand the National Do Not Call Registry, which allows individuals to opt out of receiving telemarketing calls.

The bill aims to crack down on unwanted telemarketing calls by requiring telemarketers to obtain written consent before making calls to individuals on the Do Not Call Registry. It also seeks to increase penalties for violations of the registry, including fines of up to $10,000 per violation.

Additionally, the DO NOT Call Act includes provisions to improve enforcement of the registry by giving the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) more authority to investigate and prosecute violations. It also requires telemarketers to provide a way for individuals to easily opt out of receiving calls in the future. Overall, the goal of Bill 118 s 3324 is to protect consumers from unwanted telemarketing calls and give them more control over the calls they receive. The bill is currently in the early stages of the legislative process and will need to be debated and voted on by both the House of Representatives and the Senate before it can become law.
