Congress Considers Bipartisan Bill Mandating AM Radio in New Vehicles

A bipartisan bill, the 'AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act,' is currently under consideration in Congress, aiming to mandate AM radio in new passenger vehicles. The House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed the bill last month, and it now awaits a decision from the Senate. Proponents argue AM radio remains a critical lifeline for emergency alerts and news, despite pushback from car manufacturers citing potential interference from electric vehicle technology.
