More Info: Foxx introduced a bill this month directing the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to apply its Do Not Call Registry to the despised phenomenon that candidates of all stripes have come to rely on: the political robocall. … The FTC’s registry blocks telemarketers from calling people who add themselves to the list.
