Car makers would have to let owners access and use data from their own vehicles. The summary packet gives only the bill’s basic purpose, so many details are still unclear.
Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

Latest action on H.R. 6687: Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects people who own vehicles and the companies that make them. Owners could get more access to their own car data. Manufacturers would have to provide that access. Repair shops, software companies, and other service providers could also be affected if owners choose to use or share the data.
Why this matters: Modern vehicles collect data that can matter for repairs, service, apps, and owner control. This bill would shift more access to vehicle owners. The text available here does not show the full rules, so the practical effect depends on details not included in the packet.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
