The “AM for Every Vehicle Act” is moving forward in the House of Representatives.

The legislation has been approved by a voice vote in a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee.

Sens. Ed Markey and Ted Cruz jointly applauded the development, calling it “another clear signal that millions of consumers are demanding broadcast AM radio remain in their vehicles. … We are glad that our House colleagues recognize the importance of the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act, and look forward to working with our colleagues to enact this critical public safety legislation into law.”
