What changed in the latest version

18 added · 12 removed

Plain-language change summary

The latest version of SB 2136 includes a new provision specifically allowing residential subscribers to pursue legal action if they receive calls that violate the law, whereas the previous version simply addressed subscribers in general. Additionally, the time frame for enforcing these rights has been extended to 24 months from the date of the call, compared to the unspecified period before. This change is important because it clarifies who can take action and gives residents more time to respond to unwanted calls, helping to strengthen consumer protections.
