We are pleased to report that the AM Radio For Every Vehicle Act is gaining support. The Senate bill S.315 has picked up 57 co-sponsors. As of this writing, the House Bill H.R. 979, has garnered 117 co-sponsors, including the following members of the NY Congressional Delegation:
Rep. Gillen, Laura [D-NY-4]
Rep. LaLota, Nick [R-NY-1]
Rep. Langworthy, Nicholas A. [R-NY-23]
Rep. Riley, Josh [D-NY-19]
Rep. Tenney, Claudia [R-NY-24]
Rep. Velázquez, Nydia M. [D-NY-7]
During our recent visits to DC, a number of representatives from New York indicated they would be supporting the legislation. We are following up with each of these offices. The Senate Commerce Committee already moved the bill by a 27-1 vote. We are hoping the House Commerce Committee will do the same in the next several weeks.
In addition, NYSBA, along with all state broadcasting associations, has signed a joint letter urging Congress to pass the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act. You can see the letter here.
