Agreement in Place to Help Fight Robo Calls

 

Twelve of the nation’s largest telecommunications companies have agreed to adopt a set of principles that will help state attorneys general protect Americans from illegal robocalls. Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt says one of the most frequent topics that comes up as he travels across Kansas is the explosion in unwanted and often illegal robocalls and how can they be stopped. He says any meaningful solution must be a two-pronged approach involving both technology and law enforcement.

 

The agreement, signed by Schmidt, attorneys general from the 49 other states and the District of Columbia, as well as representatives from the 12 telecom companies, outline a set of eight principles to fight illegal robocalls through both prevention and enforcement efforts.
