Prohibits telemarketers from calling a Missouri resident on the no-call list

AI Summary

This bill, by repealing and reenacting section 407.1095 of the Missouri Revised Statutes (RSMo), aims to prohibit telemarketers from calling Missouri residents who are on a no-call list, with specific definitions provided for terms like "caller identification service" (which allows phone users to see incoming numbers), "residential subscriber" (an individual or household using phone service for personal use), and "telephone solicitation" (any voice, text message, or multimedia message intended to sell or rent property, goods, or services). The bill clarifies that certain communications are exempt from this prohibition, including those with a subscriber's prior permission, those from entities with whom the subscriber has had recent business contact, and those from charitable organizations (501(c)(3) entities) making fundraising calls by a bona fide member, as well as calls from entities regulated by a federal agency that are required to maintain their own no-call lists.
