225,000 Missouri telephone numbers already has been listed as off-limits for telemarketers. That’s after just 23 days of registration under the new no-call law. After July 1st, telemarketers can be fined $5,000 for calling a number on that list more than once a year. Attorney General Jay Nixon says the list is growing at the rate of almost 10,000 a day. The new law does not limit calls from companies that are regulated otherwise by state or federal agencies. Nixon says the legislature needs to close those loopholes this year.
