Establishes task force to study technology and other methods used to reduce or eliminate telemarketing harassment and intimidation.

This bill establishes a task force within New Jersey's Division of Consumer Affairs to study ways to reduce telemarketing harassment and intimidation. The task force will consist of 11 members, including state officials and public appointees such as telecommunications experts, AARP representatives, and senior citizens who have experienced harassment. The group will evaluate the cost and feasibility of implementing new technologies and methods to combat unwanted calls and must submit a report to the Governor and Legislature within 180 days, which will include a cost-benefit analysis and potential draft legislation. The bill takes effect immediately and will expire once the task force completes its report.
