Email from Childrens Health Defense Don’t let them.     Dear John, Imagine waking up to a giant cell tower right next to your home or child’s school. If adopted, new rules proposed by the FCC will give the wireless industry dictatorial control of cell towers, giving them the right to place them anywhere and everywhere – and there will be virtually nothing you can do to stop it. Make your voice heard now to stop these rules from being adopted! Take Action Here’s what the proposed rules mean for your community: Silences your community’s voice. What the FCC calls “streamlining” is really shutting you out. Public hearings would disappear, conditional use permits would vanish, and elected officials would be powerless. Decisions about your streets, your schools, and your safety would be made in Washington, D.C., not where you live. Automatic tower approval after 150 days. The FCC calls local review “unreasonable delays.” If your city doesn’t rubber-stamp a tower application in time, it’s approved automatically — even if there is fierce local opposition. No independent review. The FCC wants to bar localities from hiring their own experts to test radiation safety. Instead, the industry would police itself — and communities would be forced to take their word for it. Lose existing protections. The FCC wants to force towers in the middle of quiet residential streets, on playgrounds, over classrooms, and in historic districts — and your neighborhood will have no power to stop it. Threatens property rights and local budgets. The FCC wants to strip communities of the ability to cover the true costs of oversight or protect property values. Families could see their biggest investment — their homes — lose value overnight, with no compensation and no recourse. This is a hill to die on. Fill out our form to demand that these dangerous new rules are not adopted.
