Mayor Pete: big on AMFEVA.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg expresses support for the AM For Every Vehicle Act during an interview on WGN-AM, highlighting bipartisan backing for the legislation aimed at ensuring AM radio accessibility in vehicles. Buttigieg emphasizes AM radio’s significance for entertainment, information, and safety. The Act mandates the presence of the AM band in all new US vehicles, enforced by the Department of Transportation with potential penalties for non-compliance. Buttigieg refrains from addressing the suggestion of warning labels on vehicles without AM radios. Despite obstacles, the Act garners significant congressional support, awaiting a formal Senate floor vote following Kentucky Senator Rand Paul’s block.
