Related: About this forumHas anyone else received a robo call from API asking for support of the Keystone XL
by pressing 1 on your phone, to add your name to their letter of support to Secretary of State John Kerry to accept the pipeline from Canada to Oklahoma? The Koch brothers own the costal refinery deporting fossil energies. Less supply will make the price/cost to consumers for fuel, go up in America. (This phone line is in NE Tarrant County.)
Here are some other issues of the American Petroleum Institute-API besides the connection to Sec. John Kerry:

(632 posts)Though once I heard "tell President Obama enough is enough", I gave them a heartfelt expletive and hung up. Frickin' called a little after 8 am.

(1 post)I keep receiving calls from API even though I am on the DNC list. They have called multiple times this morning on our land line that we rarely use. The next call I receive I will file a complaint with the FCC.

(4,695 posts)571 480 67??. Maybe that last number was a 2 but the last two were unclear. Maybe someone else got the last two numbers. Seems like someone Up-Thread either pickup the phone or called the number back. API may be leaving different numbers with the calls. Could they be fake phone numbers? Or numbers that API is canceling everyday? Is Jennifer the same person initiating the calls to all of us? We are on the No Call List also.

(111,934 posts)Robocalls are made by many political parties in the United States, including but not limited to both the Republican and Democratic parties as well as unaffiliated campaigns, 527 organizations, unions, and individual citizens. Political robocalls are exempt from the United States National Do Not Call Registry.[8][9] The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (TCPA) and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations prohibit anyone (including charities, politicians and political parties) from making robocalls to cell phone numbers without the recipients' prior consent.[10] The FCC permits non-commercial robocalls to most residential (non-cellular) telephone lines.

(32,004 posts)I got mail from Romney during the last election. In Texas you have to declare to caucus, so I am a registered Democrat and it is right on my voter card. So I wondered if the campaigns just had access to the DMV (driver's licenses) or something very basic like that.

I wish there was some way to stop them.
