Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird and Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody, joined by ten other state attorneys general, have urged Congress to pass the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act. This legislation would prevent automakers from removing AM radios from vehicles, especially electric cars. Citing the critical role AM radio played during Hurricane Helene, they argue that AM radio provides essential, life-saving information when other communication systems fail. The letter to congressional leaders emphasizes AM radio’s vital role in disaster response and calls for prioritizing its inclusion in all vehicles to maintain this key emergency communication tool.
