HR 7756 United States House · 118th Congress

Protecting American Consumers from Robocalls Act

This bill expands the Do Not Call rules to protect all phone numbers (not just residential lines) from unwanted robocalls. It removes restrictions requiring calls to be "residential" and changes the rule so any single call by an entity can trigger protections, eliminating the previous requirement of "more than one call within 12 months." The Federal Communications Commission must update its regulations within 270 days to implement these changes. The law directly affects consumers receiving robocalls and gives them a clearer private right to sue violators.
