Schakowsky, Janice D. [D-IL-9] | IL | D | S001145 | 4 | Protect Consumers from Phony Phone Charges Act of 2016 This bill requires the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to complete a rulemaking proceeding relating to the placing of unauthorized charges on a consumer's telephone bill (commonly referred to as "cramming"). The FCC must consider whether to issue a rule that requires blocking the placement of third-party charges on a consumer's wireline, wireless, or bundled services telephone bill under the criteria it relied upon when it entered into a consent decree relating to cramming with mobile voice and data service providers. | 2023-01-11T13:32:43Z |
