What the agency says
In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) seeks comment on whether to adopt changes to its numbering policies with respect to how assigned numbering resources are utilized, reported, and resold by service providers as part of its continuing effort to combat illegal robocalls. The Commission explores and proposes a broad array of solutions to strengthen the Commission's numbering requirements and policies, particularly as they relate to resellers that use numbering resources to engage in some of the most extensive illegal robocalling schemes.
