   On November 21, 2022, the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC"   
   or "Commission") issued a declaratory ruling and order finding that   
   "ringless voicemails" are subject to the Telephone Consumer Protection   
   Act ("TCPA") and, therefore, require prior express consent from   
   wireless recipients. This ruling should end the long-standing debate   
   over whether consent is required to deliver ringless voicemail   
   messages. The order makes clear that the FCC is not prohibiting the   
   sending of ringless voicemail; rather, it is clarifying that ringless   
   voicemail messaging is subject to the TCPA. The FCC ruled that   
   ringless voicemail calls should be regulated under the artificial or   
   prerecorded voice prong of the statute, which requires the prior   
   express consent of consumers prior to delivery to wireless numbers.
