Republican House leaders on May 17 blocked consideration of legislation to expand Missouri’s popular “no-call” list, which prohibits many unwanted phone calls from telemarketers. The Senate had added the no-call provisions to a House bill relating to telecommunications services.
Only land-lines may be included on the list under current law. The Senate sought to allow Missourians to block telemarketing calls to cell phones and prohibit pre-recorded “robocalls” from political candidates and campaigns. The bill, HB 801, later passed without the no-call provisions.
