Many telecom companies have joined this effort and are working hard to stop illegal robocallers.
State attorneys general have encouraged the telecom industry to increase the number and speed of traceback investigations each month. In their comments, the states note that traceback investigations are necessary for law enforcement to efficiently identify and investigate illegal robocallers and expose voice service providers that assist and facilitate illegal robocallers. Because a call can pass through the networks of many telecom companies before reaching its final destination, tracing that call-which is key to enforcing our laws against illegal robocallers-requires collaboration among telecom companies and state attorneys general.
Under the TRACED Act, which became law in December 2019, the FCC will select a single registered association to manage the work to trace back illegal robocalls. Clarkson, with the State Attorneys General Robocall Working Group, is encouraging the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to facilitate collaboration among state attorneys general and telecom companies in tracing back illegal robocalls to their source.
