WASHINGTON, D.C. — From House Members Michelle Fischbach and Brad Finstad to even Ilhan Omar and Sen. Tina Smith, it is a day on Capitol Hill where at least one of the nearly 600 NAB State Leadership Conference attendees had direct access to leaders that have yet to vote on the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act.
The legislation, despite overwhelming support in both the House and Senate, is stuck in a quagmire. Automotive industry lobbying and the Consumer Technology Association’s efforts to block a vote on the “mandate” appear to be doing the trick. At risk is the loss of a local voice for consumers.
That’s just happened in the Gateway to the West.
