MAKE THE TCPA GREAT AGAIN?: WHAT DOES DONALD J. TRUMP’S MASSIVE VICTORY MEAN FOR THE TCPA TELECOM WORLDS? FIND OUT NEXT WEEK!

Add a comment

It is not an overstatement to suggest when Donald Trump takes office next year he will become the most powerful man in the history of the world.

I’m quite serious.

With an army of partisans ready to appease him in the Congress and courts, and with a demonstrated record of being able to sway the populace (or at least enough of the populace at the right time) to win elections, there will be very little to prevent him from enacting every element of his agenda.

Plus, he’s had a head start and the opportunity to learn from his mistakes while in office the first time.

Yes, I suspect history is about to witness something entirely new. A president with near absolute power over every nook and cranny of this nation’s regulatory environment–and a firm commitment to exercise as much control as he can muster. And much like AI there is much promise here, and also much for potential for disaster.

To say, therefore, that Trump’s win will have a massive impact on TCPAWorld is putting it mildly. In theory, everything is on the table now.

But what will the most likely immediate impacts be? What is the timing on FCC changes? How are the courts most likely to respond? And–importantly–what is the fate of the new one-to-one ruling?

Putting a finer point on it, will TCPA issues be a priority for this administration? And if so, will there be a commitment to tort reform or an expansion of efforts to crush the nuisance of robocalls at the expense of small business?

Its a fascinating time to be alive (then again, it always is.) And an especially interesting time here in TCPAWorld!

So you will not want to miss what will likely be the MOST CRITICAL WEBINAR OF THE YEAR when Michael Ferree and I dive into these issues next Thursday November 14, 2024. 

Registration information here.

The webinar is free although, per usual, I think capacity is somewhat limited so I encourage you to sign up NOW and show up ON TIME to avoid being locked out (love you, but seriously these things do happen.)

Come prepared with questions and we’ll do what we can to answer them as well!

Also Queenie and I will be speaking (main stage) at ANA Masters of Advertising Law NEXT WEEK. If you will be there be sure to reach out. I think you can expect us to discuss these issues as well. 😉

Chat soon!

Published by Eric "Czar" Troutman

The Czar of TCPAWorld Eric Troutman is one of the country’s prominent class action defense lawyers and is nationally recognized in Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) litigation and compliance. He has served as lead defense counsel in more than 70 national TCPA class actions and has litigated nearly a thousand individual TCPA cases in his role as national strategic litigation counsel for major banks and finance companies. He also helps industry participants build TCPA-compliant processes, policies, and systems. Eric has built a national litigation practice based upon deep experience, rigorous analysis and extraordinary responsiveness. Eric and his team feel equally at home litigating multibillion dollar telecommunications class actions in federal court as they do developing and executing national litigation strategies for institutions facing an onslaught of individual TCPA matters. They thrive in each of these roles – delivering consistently excellent results – while never losing sight of the client experience. While many firms now tout TCPA expertise, Eric has been there from the beginning. He built one of the country’s first TCPA-only defense teams and began serving as national TCPA counsel for his clients nearly a decade ago. This perspective allows him to swiftly develop the right litigation strategies for dealing with recurring problems, without wasting time on tactics that are bound to fail. Eric’s rich historical perspective and encyclopedic knowledge of the TCPA landscape also make him an invaluable resource to institutional compliance teams struggling to comply with the shifting regulatory landscape. No task is too small – or too big. Indeed, Eric and his team have helped build TCPA-compliant systems and processes for some of the largest and most complex corporate entities in the country. He commonly works with in-house compliance counsel to build and implement enterprise and business-line specific TCPA solutions, performs TCPA audits and drafts and reviews proposed TCPA policies and procedures. He and his team also have the technical expertise necessary to assist call centers seeking to develop TCPA-resistant call path architecture or to modify existing telephony and software integration to better insulate from potential TCPA exposure. Eric has built a reputation for thought leadership. An avid blogger and speaker, he has been at the forefront of the industry’s effort to push for clarity and a return to sanity for the TCPA for years. He was selected to advocate for the financial services industry on important TCPA issues before the Federal Communications Commission and co-authored the nation’s only comprehensive practice guide on TCPA defense. In his spare time, Eric leads defense teams representing banks and other financial services companies in consumer finance litigation matters. He has experience representing clients in UCC, TILA, RESPA FCRA, CCRA, CLRA, FDCPA, RFDCPA and FCCPA claims, as well as in fraud and bank operations issues.
