A special thank you to U.S. Representative Grace Meng (D-NY-6), who signed as a cosponsor on the AM Radio For Every Vehicle Act (H.R. 979).  The total number of cosponsors in the U.S. House of Representatives now stands at 184 members, including 11 representatives from New York.  The Senate bill, S.315, has 60 cosponsors, including Sen. Gillibrand. 

The following members of Congress from New York have co-sponsored the legislation:

• Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand

• Rep. Espaillat, Adriano [D-NY-13]    

• Rep. Garbarino, Andrew R. [R-NY-2]

The legislation prevents automakers from eliminating AM receivers from automobile dashboards.  We will continue to push to get more members of the New York delegation to sign on to the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act (H.R. 979).
