Dear friends,

We are pleased to announce that Americans for Responsible Technology is planning a nationwide Day of Action on May 15th, calling on wireless companies (Verizon, Sprint, AT&T and T-Mobile) and their sub-contractors (Crown Castle, ExteNet Systems and other antenna installers) to suspend the deployment of small cell wireless antennas in residential neighborhoods until such time as chronic, low level exposure to 5G radio-frequency (RF) microwave radiation can be proven completely safe.

The coordinated events will take place in front of retail wireless establishments in cities and towns across the country from 12 noon to 1:30 (local time) on Wednesday, May 15th. The purpose of these events is to raise public awareness of the issue through media coverage, and to place the burden of responsibility where it belongs: on those who stand to profit from the deployment of 5G.

While we recognize that there are many troubling aspects to the wireless radiation problem, we are framing these events to concentrate on the impact of chronic radiation exposure on children. Children are uniquely vulnerable to environmental exposures –  particularly those which can affect the developing brain and increase the risk of cancer. We believe the instinct to protect children is well understood, and this will help our message resonate with young parents and others in the community who may not yet be familiar with wireless radiation and its potential impacts on human health.

We're hoping you and others in your organization will coordinate an event in your local area. In the next few days we'll be providing you with detailed instructions and more information, including press releases, talking points, social media posts, sample letters to the editor and information about public assembly permits – materials you can use to help make your Day of Action a big success.

Please feel free to reach out to us with ideas or comments. We look forward to working with you to turn the tide on 5G!
