        <text><![CDATA[ <p><b>Protecting American Consumers from Robocalls Act</b><br /><br />This bill expands the private right of action that is available against telemarketers&nbsp;that call individuals who have registered their phone numbers on the National Do Not Call Registry. The bill permits bringing a lawsuit after receiving one such call, while current law requires at least two calls from the same telemarketer within a 12-month period before a lawsuit can be filed.</p>]]></text>
