American Commitment is an organization seeking to inform the American people about opportunities to expand and grow the American economy through free-market ideas. Phil Kerpen, American Commitment’s president, joins the show to discuss the organization and current restrictions on Wi-Fi technology.

Kerpen penned an article about how a substantial portion of the frequency spectrum was set aside twenty years ago for its specific use in automobile communication. However, car manufacturers are not making use of that spectrum for a variety of reasons, yet vehicles are still getting safer. Kerpen argues that this spectrum should be returned from the government to be used in the open market.
