I am not a lawyer. This has a nice summary: https://www.justia.com/50-state-surveys/recording-phone-call...

If a business states that the call may be recorded, then they are already consenting. Therefore your recording would be the 2nd party consenting.

In the first paragraph on that page, it says:

"Determining which jurisdiction’s law controls in cases involving recording devices or parties in multiple states can be complex, so it is likely best to adhere to the strictest applicable law when in doubt, and/or get the clear consent of all parties before recording."

So it doesn't seem to be simple to determine what's legal in any given situation.
