On May 13, 2019 U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer revealed new jaw-dropping numbers of Rochester robocalls in the past month and since January 1st at Lifespan, and is rallying for a new and best chance plan to finally kill these annoying and hair-pulling calls, many of which come in the middle of the night from overseas. Schumer is launching a major, bipartisan push to pass the Telephone Robocall Abuse Criminal Enforcement and Deterrence (TRACED) Act. The TRACED Act, introduced by U.S. Senators Ed Markey (D-MA) and John Thune (R-SD) and now cosponsored by Schumer, would give federal agencies the tools and authority they desperately need to trace, prosecute, and enforce fines against robocall scammers, as well as establish new requirements related to call authentication technology that could filter out robocalls before they reach the phones of unsuspecting Rochester-area residents.
