Subject: Florida Adopts Changes To The Florida Telephone
Solicitation Act
by Craig Gilley (Venable LLP)
Last month, Florida governor Ron DeSantis signed into law amendments
to the Florida Telephone Solicitation Act (FTSA) that scale back the
scope and reach of the statute, bringing it in line with federal TCPA
standards and providing needed comfort to good faith marketing
companies operating in Florida.
Since the last statutory changes in July 2021, the FTSA has severely
impacted telemarketing and text marketing businesses marketing to
Florida residents and otherwise conducting business in the state. Like
the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), the FTSA
prohibits using automated dialers to call or text consumers without
their consent.
