Let’s duplicate the weather radio broadcasts on the AM bands and leave the commercial stuff on the internet/podcasts in order to maximize safety, then. I’m sure the folks lobbying for this bill like the Salem Media Group wouldn’t mind.

Reorganizing the spectrum to appease one party is not only unlikely to pass with bipartisan support, but would also decrease safety because existing signage is for messages broadcast on the spectrum organized as it is right now.
