Plain-English Summary

This bill would strengthen the national "Do Not Call" registry, which allows people to opt out of receiving telemarketing calls, by updating rules and enforcement mechanisms to better protect consumers from unwanted sales calls. The legislation would likely give the Federal Trade Commission and other agencies stronger tools to penalize companies that violate do-not-call rules and would modernize the system to address newer calling technologies like robocalls and text messages. Consumers, particularly older adults who are frequent targets of scams, would benefit from reduced unwanted contact attempts.
