Lawmakers on Capitol Hill are pushing to keep AM radio in the nation's cars.WASHINGTON — U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz is leading a bipartisan push in Congress to force auto manufacturers to keep AM radio in their cars as some companies have started removing the receivers from electric vehicles.
The AM radio push is an unusual effort for the Texas Republican, who says he is"skeptical" of government mandates. But Cruz says he believes the shift away from AM is an effort to"silence conservative voices" that dominate the talk radio airwaves. "I also think more broadly than that," Cruz said."I think there’s a reason big car companies were open to taking down AM radio, which is AM radio is where a lot of talk radio is found, and talk radio is overwhelmingly conservative. And let’s be clear: Big business doesn’t like things that are overwhelmingly conservative."
