The Telephone Consumer Protection Act, or TCPA, is a federal law aimed at protecting consumers from certain automated calls, text messages, and faxes. Ultimately, it prohibits making automated telephone calls or sending automated SMS messages without the prior express consent of the recipient. You can view the full TCPA rules here.
