Swift, Al [D-WA-2] WA D S001115 29 Amends the Communications Act of 1934 to require the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to grant a broadcast station license renewal application if the licensee has operated the station during the most recent license period: (1) in a manner which serves the public interest; and (2) without serious violations of related regulations or treaties.
