Wisconsin joins robocall battle

Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul is joining the country’s other attorney generals to limit the number of robocalls you receive. According to UrbanMilwaukee, Americans receive about 4.6 billion robocalls each month, more than half of which are considered “unwanted,” such as telemarketing promotions and scam calls. Through the Anti-Robocall Litigation Task Force's multistate effort, Operation Robocall Roundup aims at 37 voice service providers and 99 downstream providers that allow the calls to happen. “Wisconsinites shouldn’t have to receive so many irritating robocalls,” said Kaul. “We remain committed to working to decrease the number of these calls.” Voice providers must comply with the Federal Communications Commission officials on mitigating robocalls from their networks. The U.S. Congress has also done its part to address robocalling, including the TRACED Act passed in 2019 that requires calls to be authenticated to prevent call spoofing, which happens when inaccurate caller ID information is knowingly used. You can find the list of the voice service providers receiving warning letters from the task force below.
