HB 1549 -- No-Call List

Sponsor:  Richardson

This bill changes the laws regarding the state's No-call List to
allow a residential subscriber to have his or her wireless
telephone number added to the list.  Currently, the definition of
"residential subscriber" is a person who has subscribed to
residential telephone service from a local exchange company or
the other persons living or residing with the person.  The bill
changes it to a person who, for primarily personal and familial
use, has subscribed to residential telephone service, wireless
service or similar service, or the other persons living or
residing with the person.

Currently, the definition of "telephone solicitation" is any
voice communication over a telephone line from a live operator,
through the use of ADAD equipment or by other means for the
purpose of encouraging the purchase or rental of, or investment
in, property, goods or services, but does not include specified
communications.  The bill changes it to any voice, facsimile,
graphic imaging, or data communication, including text message
communications for that purpose.
