you add your name to mine? If this petition gets 99,999 signatures by <span class="ydpd066d896gmail-aBn"><span class="ydpd066d896gmail-aQJ">October 01, 2017</span></span>, the White House will review it and respond!</p>

<p>Here's some more information about this petition:</p>
<p><strong>Allow new non-profit AM/FM radio licenses to be issued in remote rural areas where there is no current radio service</strong></p>
<p>There are remote rural areas of the US where an AM or FM radio will
not pick up any stations at all - such as in parts of Alaska, and the
citizens in these areas are being denied the ability to receive
information of local interest over the airwaves. The FCC seems to
completely ignore these areas where there is a legitimate need for
broadcast radio, but nothing but static can be heard from one end of the
AM and FM bands to the other. Currently the FCC claims that the
airwaves are too full to accommodate new AM stations - as if turning a
blind eye to and discriminating against US citizens who live in very
remote rural areas where there is nothing but static on the airwaves.
This petition asks for new non-profit AM and FM radio licenses to be
made available in such very remote areas.
