Casey Wants TV Conversion Delay

WASHINGTON, DC- U.S. Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) released the following statement regarding to the TV digital conversion date which is scheduled to occur on February 17, 2009:

“The digital conversion is less than 35 days away and I am concerned that during these tough economic times, nearly half a million Pennsylvanians who have broadcast-only systems will be left behind. This is why I support including additional funds in the stimulus to continue the coupon program and would support Congressional action to carry out President-elect Obama’s recommendation to push back the digital conversion date. I am going to continue to fight on behalf of Pennsylvanians to ensure that they do not have their television service disrupted.”
