State AGs Unite Against Robocalls

‘I think we can give all the credit to the robocallers,’ said former Maine Attorney General James Tierney, founder of StateAG.org, an educational group that studies the offices of state attorneys general. ‘They have been able to do the politically impossible feat: They have been able to unite the attorneys general when they don’t unite on anything else. I don’t know who they are, or what country they are in, but everybody hates robocallers.

’[The AGs] are going to lose the pro-robocall vote, but I think they are willing to take the risk,’ said Tierney, a Democrat.
