Congress is considering legislation that will allow telecoms to put their wireless 5G antennas on telephone poles and lamp posts in neighborhoods across the country. Maybe right outside your window.

Big telecom companies want to put their powerful, radiation-emitting transmitters on utility poles in neighborhoods all across America, perhaps even on or near your property.
To help expedite this process, Congress is considering legislation that takes away any local control over where these powerful 5G antennas are placed. You and your family could be exposed to constant, powerful wireless radiation 24/7/365 even if you don't use it, with no way to turn it off. If you don't want a giant cluster of wireless transmitters right outside your door, please help us stop the telecom power grab. This is your fight. Please join us now. |

• This is not about bringing broadband to underserved or rural communities. It will not solve the digital divide. This is not about improving cell phone reception, or assisting first-responders in an emergency. This massive build-out of wireless infrastructure is to enable telecom companies to blast their signals into private homes and apartments so you and your neighbors can stream movies and play video games, enjoy driverless cars and have your refrigerator order more milk.
• While installing more wireless infrastructure may be a goal of the telecom industry, it is not a necessary public service, and the Federal government should not allow any industry to override local zoning regulations or discretionary review.
• Private interests should not be permitted to use private property for their own financial gain without the consent of property owners.
• Long-term exposure to microwave radiation has not been proven safe. Proximity is a key factor in elevating risk. Studies have shown that exposure to microwave radiation can have significant biological effects, even at levels far below FCC guidelines. (See our page on Science). You do not want a massive cluster of 5G antennas near your home or office, or anywhere near your children.
• Claims of safety made by telecom companies are based on health information as of 1986, more than thirty years ago! The FCC is considering changes to exposure limits, but powerful industry lobbyists are making sure that doesn't happen before the full deployment of 5G takes place.
