Protest Rally Planned Outside the FCC to Oppose 4G/5G So-Called “Small Cell” Antennas Next to Our Homes

PRESS RELEASE

The Wireless Telecom Industry is hell-bent on installing 4G/5G antennas and infrastructure in the public rights of way in residential communities around the country and is aggressively pushing legislation at the federal, state, and local levels.  A coalition of groups is planning a rally on April 20, 2017, to oppose the forced installation of 4G/5G "small cells" in our neighborhoods and to protect the zoning rights of local communities.

4G/5G will install hundreds of thousands of new cell phone towers on virtually every utility pole or lamppost with a “small cell” antenna beaming hazardous pulsed Radio-Frequency Microwave Radiation (RF/MW radiation) into our homes 24/7.  Each “small cell” comes equipped with a noisy, power supply cabinet -- potentially the size of a refrigerator -- that can leak toxic chemicals from batteries inside. This unnecessary infrastructure will greatly detract from the aesthetics of our communities. 

Tens of thousands of independent scientific studies (http://www.orsaa.org/) prove that RF/MW radiation causes adverse health effects. According to many experts, the densification of our neighborhoods with wireless 4G/5G antennas and other infrastructure may prove to be a very ill-conceived idea (http://www.military-technologies.net/2017/03/09/the-internet-of-things-poses-human-health-risks-scientists-question-the-safety-of-untested-5g-technology-at-international-conference/). Fiber Optic cable, on the other hand, is the safe, healthy, fast, reliable, and far more cyber-secure alternative.  These scientists are calling for fiber-optic cables to every home, school, and business instead of hazardous 4G/5G antennas and infrastructure.

- If you DO NOT WANT small cells beaming radiation into our homes 24/7

- If you DO NOT WANT the wireless industry preempting local zoning rights

- If you DO WANT to connect all homes and businesses with safe, reliable, cyber-secure, fiber optic cables

. . . then please join us for a demonstration outside the FCC Offices from 9:00 am to 10:15 am on April 20th (445 12th St SW, Washington, DC 20554). You are welcome to attend the FCC open meeting that will be held from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm. We will be protesting again after the FCC open meeting from 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm if you can stick around.
