The FCC and industry are fast-tracking legislation that would take authority away from our municipalities in deciding whether or not we want the infrastructure
needed for 5G and
t
he Internet of Things. They did this back in 1997 too when they circumvented safety testing on cell phone technology then got the Telecommunications Act passed.
That left our local authorities powerless as the industry put cell towers near homes, schools, hospitals, churches and senior housing. Many have become very ill, with no recourse.
Now the FCC and industry are trying to push through two bills in D.C. that will put small but extremely hazardous cell antennas in our neighborhoods on utility
poles right outside our homes, schools, offices, everywhere. The 5G signal will carry huge doses of data faster, but not very far so the industry wants to install millions of these small cell
antennas to carry the data from pole to pole. 5G will also use 3G and 4G technology so existing towers won't come down; 5G will add to the electrosmog. These small cell antennas will pulse
biologically hazardous microwave radiation at us 24/7 at close range.
The way the Telecom Act is written today, industry is supposed to submit an application to town officials to put in antennas, and these new bills are trying to
override this control measure for local authorities. Why is the FCC and industry in such a rush? The U.S. National Toxicology Program is in the middle of reporting out findings from
a $25M multi-year study that has already found this radiation causes DNA damage, brain and heart tumors. More findings will come out in 2017.
The industry leaders
are not concerned with
public health, they just want to be first to market. As soon as the NTP findings came out, they pushed to get approval to use the 5G spectrum. The Cellular Telephone Industry Association (CTIA-The
Wireless Association) did its own big cancer study in the 1990s which showed the same findings, but they didn't inform the public. Instead, they crafted the Telecom Act and pushed cell phones and infrastructure on an unsuspecting public. Then they
introduced wi-fi which exposes us even further indoors, and now they plan to roll out
t
he Internet of Things and blanket our neighborhoods in radiation.
Please, don't take my word on all of this, when you have time I encourage you to investigate on your own (thank you, Katie Singer, author of Invisible
Silent Spring, and others for this great resource on these two bills, and thank you world scientists for the EMF
Scientists website which presents the facts on wireless radiation).
But for today, we need your voice (and every adult's in your house) in two ways:
1. Call your U.S. Senators' office with the following message; you can read it to the person who answers the phone, or leave it in voice mail. Phone numbers are given at the end of this
email:
My name is ______ from (city/state) and I am calling to ask the Senator to Vote
NO on MOBILE Now Act S.19 and DIGIT Act S.88 to stop 5G infrastructure and rollout of the Internet
of Things. The
National Toxicology Program has found the electromagnetic radiation used by wireless technology causes DNA damage, and brain and heart tumors. Non-industry funded studies all over the
world report other short-and long-term biological effects, ranging from infertility, Alzheimer’s and autism to digital addiction, insomnia, headaches, skin rashes, learning disabilities,
behavioral issues, depression,
anxiety
and more. Please VOTE NO on the MOBILE Now Act S.19 and DIGIT Act S.88. Please insist on public hearings, and send a clear message to industry that they need to work with non-industry
funded scientists to develop biologically safe technology. Thank you.
2. Email your U.S. Senators with the following message; email links are given below:
The
National Toxicology Program has found the electromagnetic field (EMF) of radiation emitted by wireless technology causes DNA damage, and brain and heart tumors. Non-industry funded studies all over the world report other short-and long-term biological effects, ranging from infertility, Alzheimer’s and autism to
digital addiction, insomnia, headaches, nausea, nose/ear bleeds, skin rashes, cognitive impairment, learning disabilities, behavioral issues, depression, anxiety and more. Children,
fetuses, the elderly and those with known health compromises are especially vulnerable. See www.emfscientist.org.
If
this subject is new to you, you will likely have questions as we have all rapidly adopted wireless technology into our lives. Please read this high-level three-page overview titled,
"EMF Points of Confusion vs. Fact" at
TinyURL.com/EMF-Facts.
The
FCC and industry are trying to fast-track these bills which will take away local authority from communities to decide whether they want toxic 5G/Internet of Things infrastructure
installed at the street-level on poles right outside homes, schools, and offices. Please insist on public hearings, and send a clear message to industry that they need to work with
non-industry funded scientists to develop biologically safe technology. Retired Microsoft Canada President Frank
Clegg assures us they can, if given a nudge. See https://vimeo.com/134411701.
Please VOTE
NO on the MOBILE Now Act S.19 and DIGIT Act S.88. Thank
you.
This is how the system works. They log your call, then print out your email for the legislator. Multiple calls and emails get their attention. If there is no
activity, or very little, the industry wins.
Thank you for taking the time to read this email. I hope you will take another ten minutes to call and send an email to your legislators before your head hits
the pillow tonight. The Senate will vote on this any day now, and most do not even know wireless is hazardous yet. They've only heard the benefits from persuasive industry lobbyists.
Thank you for the courage to use your voice in a way that might really make a difference in our world!
Warm regards,
