In a statement, Pai called "combatting illegal robocalls" the top consumer priority for the FCC. He called on the companies to adopt call authentication technology.

"It's the best way to ensure that consumers can answer their phones with confidence," Pai said, referring to the authentication technology, which would digitally sign and validate calls. "If it does not appear that this system is on track to get up and running next year, then we will take action to make sure that it does."
