Ohio moves to tighten do-not-call law

COLUMBUS - A bill allowing Ohio to stop persistent telemarketers from violating the national do-not-call registry is headed to Gov. Bob Taft.

The federal law applies only to calls placed from state to state or from out of the country, so the Ohio law is needed to stop calls made to Ohioans from within the state, said Sen. Robert Spada, the bill's sponsor and a North Royalton Republican.

Telemarketers challenging the rules in federal court say the rules violate free speech rights by allowing calls from some organizations but not others.

Both the FTC and the Federal Communications Commission are enforcing the calling ban during the court challenge.
