Bill > HB292

This bill modifies Missouri's existing no-call list regulations to allow businesses, in addition to residential subscribers, to register and opt out of telephone solicitations. The bill expands the definition of who can register by introducing the term "business subscriber" and amending multiple sections of state law to include business entities alongside residential subscribers. Key changes include allowing businesses to register for free on the state's no-call database, requiring telemarketers to clearly identify themselves at the beginning of solicitations, and prohibiting telemarketers from blocking caller identification services for both residential and business numbers. The bill also requires the Attorney General to establish an advisory group to create educational materials about telephone solicitation options and to work with local telecommunications companies to disseminate information about the no-call list. The goal is to provide businesses with the same protections from unwanted telephone solicitations that have previously been available only to residential subscribers, thereby reducing unsolicited marketing calls to business phone numbers.
