A
new federal bill that threatens to eliminate all state and local
control in cell tower and small cell placements is making its way
through Congress. Proposed bill H.R. 3557 aims to expedite the
deployment of wireless and other communications facilities through a
massive federal power grab that strips away state and local control in
permitting and regulatory review processes – the very mechanisms
designed to protect citizens from the threats posed by wireless
facilities.
If H.R. 3557 passes, it will result in a truly
unrestricted proliferation of cell towers and small cell installations
near schools, playgrounds, and homes without any local or community
input.
Cell
towers and small cells endanger our health, damage the environment, and
jeopardize our privacy and autonomy. Despite these threats, H.R. 3557
systematically removes state and local jurisdiction, prohibits temporary
suspensions of installations and eliminates critical regulatory
safeguards such as environmental and historic preservation reviews.
We
cannot afford to lose all local control and must not allow the wireless
and telecom industry to expand unchecked based on misguided and
one-size-fits-all federal laws. We must stop this advancement of
corporate interests at the expense of the health, safety and well-being
of people and the environment.
Help us #KillHR3557 by telling your elected officials to oppose H.R. 3557, the American Broadband Deployment Act of 2023.
