Call on your elected officials to co-sponsor the Local Community Radio Act:
Hundreds of activists from around the country are descending upon Washington today to tell Congress that we need better and more diverse local radio.
The Local Community Radio Act (H.R. 2802/ S. 1675) will open up the airwaves to more diverse, independent, Low Power FM (LPFM) radio stations. Activists are meeting with Sen. Jon Tester and Sen. Max Baucus today, and they could use your help!
This important bill opens the radio dial to more community-driven and locally focused stations, providing news and information often ignored by mainstream radio — information crucial to healthy communities and a vibrant democracy.
The bipartisan Local Community Radio Act would create hundreds, if not thousands, of new Low Power FM radio stations in towns across the country.
