Am Radio for Every Vehicle Act of 2025
The House debated H.R. 979, the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act, which directs the Department of Transportation to require AM radio as standard equipment in all new passenger vehicles, with labels and fee restrictions for cars made before the rule takes effect and an expiration of the rule after 10 years. Members from both parties spoke in support, saying AM radio remains widely used for news, weather, and farm reports, and that it is a key way people receive emergency alerts when power and cell service are out during disasters. Supporters including the bill’s sponsor, Gus Bilirakis, and Debbie Dingell described it as a bipartisan compromise and noted the sunset date lets Congress revisit the issue as technology changes. The bill was brought up under a motion to suspend the rules.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
