Advocacy

As the voice of broadcasters in the nation's capital, NAB advocates on behalf of America's free, local radio and television stations and also broadcast networks before Congress, the Federal Communications Commission and the courts.

NAB is committed to educating Capitol Hill on how legislation and regulations affect the broadcasting business, and more importantly, the listening and viewing public. NAB works to ensure broadcasters can operate in a marketplace free of unnecessary regulation, helping to spur the development of new broadcast technologies.
