The telecom industry is hard at work re-introducing their bills in this new Congress to take away your local control on where to place cell towers, which means they can place them next to your home, school and business, and where your children play, without your consent.
Problems: from depreciating property values to creating a toxic zone of cascading health effects from radio frequency (RF) radiation.
Your US Rep. Richard Hudson (R-NC 9th District) is critically important as he is Chair of the second most powerful committee in Congress for telecommunications, the Communications & Technology Subcommittee of the House Energy & Commerce Committee. Most telecom bills pass by this subcommittee.
We need your help to set up a meeting with the office of Rep. Richard Hudson. Here’s what you can do:
- Call the telecommunications staffer, Alex Stepahin, at 202.225.3715 and email at Alex.Stepahin@mail.house.gov
- Ask to meet virtually to discuss “telecom bills and bridging the digital divide”
- Set up a meeting for ½ hour within the time availability below so that Odette Wilkens, Chair & General Counsel of the National Call for Safe Technology, and Charles Frohman, lobbyist for the National Health Federation, can be with you at the meeting to discuss the bills in detail
- Invite family and friends to meet with you who live in Rep. Hudson’s district – NC 9th congressional district – see https://statisticalatlas.com/state/Arkansas/Overview
- Include Odette Wilkens at hello@thenationalcall.org on your email to confirm availability as the time slots may fill up with other meetings with legislators
- Once you confirm with Alex on date and time, Odette will set up a Zoom call
- Send to Odette the names and emails of all who will be attending the call, including Alex’s email, to include on the Zoom invite
