Urges Congress and President to enact "Do Not Disturb Act."
SJR 50 is a New Jersey joint resolution urging Congress to pass the "Do Not Disturb Act." It highlights that Americans received 2.1 billion spam/scam calls monthly in 2023 (wasting 195 million hours), and notes a 2021 Supreme Court ruling narrowed existing anti-robocall protections under the TCPA. The resolution requests Congress enact the proposed "Do Not Disturb Act," which would expand protections against robocalls, combat AI-driven scams, and reduce costs for call-blocking technology. As a non-binding resolution, it does not create new law but formally asks federal lawmakers to act.
