两个行业团体向公平竞争委员会请愿,要求TPCA澄清关于电话销售和公用事业文本的规则。 Two industry groups petition the FCC for TCPA rule clarifications on telemarketing and utility texts.

已经就《电话消费者保护法》向公平竞争委员会提交了两份请愿书。 Two petitions have been filed with the FCC regarding the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). 电子商务创新联盟寻求澄清“安静时间”的电话销售规则,并使用地区代码确定移动电话的位置。 The Ecommerce Innovation Alliance seeks clarity on telemarketing rules during "quiet hours" and the use of area codes to determine a mobile phone's location. 爱迪生电气研究所要求确认公用事业公司可在高使用期发送非销售信息文本。 The Edison Electric Institute requests confirmation that utility companies can send non-marketing, informational texts during high usage periods. 评论应于4月10日前提交,答复应于4月25日前提交。 Comments are due by April 10, with reply comments by April 25. 此外,最近的一项法院裁决认定,鼓励使用免费服务的电话不算作《TCPA》下的“电话招标”。 Additionally, a recent court decision found that calls encouraging the use of free services do not count as "telephone solicitations" under the TCPA.
