The FCC has released a sweeping new rulemaking—WT Docket No. 25-276—proposing to federalize decisions about where cell towers and small cells can be placed, significantly limiting local authority over siting, safety, aesthetics, and community input. At the same time, Congress is considering H.R. 2289, a bill that would similarly strip local control and exempt most wireless facilities from environmental and historic preservation reviews.
This deregulatory effort comes despite growing scientific evidence of cell tower and cell phone safety health risk.
This webinar will walk you through what’s happening on the federal level and what you can do.
