The U.S. House passed the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act last month, a bipartisan bill requiring automakers to include AM radio in new vehicles. The measure now goes to the Senate, where a companion bill has already drawn support, while a companion effort has gathered backing according to public records. Broadcasters like WGN-AM's Mary Sandberg Boyle back the bill, citing AM radio's role in emergency alerts, while the Alliance for Automotive Innovation opposes it.
