New York State Bill To Create 5G Study Commission
Assembly Bill A7229 establishes a temporary commission to study the environmental and health effects of evolving 5G technology.
“The legislature finds that fifth generation, or 5G, wireless technology is intended to greatly increase device capability and connectivity but also may pose significant risks to humans, animals, and the environment due to increased radio frequency radiation exposure.”
“Therefore, the legislature finds a commission is needed to examine the advantages and risks associated with 5G technology, with a focus on its environmental impact and potential health effects on citizens of our state.”
New York City is slated to get dozens of new huge 30 foot 5G and 4G poles! Many residents are opposed. 16 community boards have issued refusals, moratoriums or votes of non support for the 5G towers. The new jumbo LINK 5G poles are very large, tall and have five tiers for transmitting antennas.

Senate Bill S5632A: New York State Senator Harckham’s consumer protection and utility meter choice bill will allow you to keep your electric, gas, or water analog meter with no fee, penalty or service charge. It also will allow you to get an analog meter re-instated, within 10 days if you provide written notice that you are electrically sensitive.
