Abstract
In this document, the Commission, via the Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau (CGB or Bureau), amends its rules by eliminating the rule that requires an opt-out notice on fax advertisements sent with the recipient's prior express permission or consent. This rule was declared unlawful by the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit and therefore its elimination is warranted to ensure uniform and consistent application of the rules.
