NATE Statement on AM Radio For Every Vehicle Act
NATE: The Communications Infrastructure Contractors Association today issued the following statement in support of H.R. 3413 AM Radio For Every Vehicle Act.
“NATE encourages the House of Representatives to pass this important bipartisan legislation that would require automakers to maintain AM broadcast radio in new vehicles at no additional charge. At a time when communication is critical, efforts to remove AM Radio from vehicles will threaten the safety of our workforce. Members of NATE are deployed across the country in many hard-to-reach areas where AM Radio is vital for communication in the case of weather or other emergencies. The value of AM radio during emergencies cannot be overstated, and it has clearly saved lives and kept our teams informed,” said President & CEO Todd Schlekeway. “We look forward to participating in these important conversations with members of the House as they consider this path forward.”
