Lawmakers in New York want to impose new penalties on companies and individuals that make unwanted robocalls to residents in the state, including a fine and the ability for individuals to sue those callers.
A bill making its way through the Legislature would prohibit those calls and give new power to the office of New York Attorney General Letitia James to impose penalties from $2,000 to $20,000 against individuals or entities who make unwanted robocalls, excluding emergencies.
