SB 330 Ohio Senate · 135th Legislature (2023-2024)

Revise the telemarketing law

SB 330 amends state telemarketing laws to align them with federal regulations and clarify definitions for modern communication methods. The bill updates terminology to include voice over internet protocol services and expands the definition of text messages to cover multimedia content sent via phone numbers. It strengthens enforcement by allowing the attorney general to investigate violations and issue subpoenas for evidence, even when records are located outside the state. Additionally, the law specifies that voice service providers are not liable for assisting telemarketers unless they knowingly support illegal activities.
