On August 19, 2016, the FCC hosted the first meeting of the Robocall Strike Force, an industry-led group that is committed to developing comprehensive solutions to prevent, detect, and filter unwanted robocalls.

Robocalls and telemarketing calls are the number one source of consumer complaints received by the FCC. Following a call to action by FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler (Calling Off Robocalls), industry leaders moved to form the Strike Force to expeditiously address consumer concerns with robocalls and deploy anti-robocall solutions.

Here is more information including a video of the actual First Meeting of Robocall Strike Force.
