With about three weeks to go until the much-anticipated digital switchover, the Senate voted to give consumers until June 12th to convert their analog TVs. “Unless we get this right, millions could be without television on February 18,” said Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota. The bill will need to get reconciled with the House version, which is expected to happen soon.
