Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita recently launched Operation Robocall Roundup, a multistate effort by the Anti-Robocall Litigation Task Force, which his office co-leads, to crack down on robocalls nationwide. The task force is sending warning letters to 37 voice providers demanding that they act now to stop illegal robocalls from being routed through their networks.
The targeted providers haven’t complied with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules about responding to government traceback requests, haven’t registered in the FCC’s Robocall Mitigation Databases, or haven’t filed a plan that describes how they will reduce illegal robocalls on their network.
