POSITION PAPER

Cell towers & fires

A jam-packed PDF with vital, credible, and strategic info that is both footnoted and linked regarding telecom fires and ratepayers already having paid for future-proof fiber. A great resource to share -- especially with elected officials and agencies. 

Emailing a .pdf and/or sharing the .pdf online (full screen) during a Zoom will generate maximum visual and lobbying impact. When printing as a handout, orient the layout to landscape/horizontal.

Thanks to Susan Foster and eyemind concepts; “Works of Arc” for this great resource.

Susan Foster has given permission for anybody to put their name on this 700 word piece as if it is their own guest column or op-ed. *Please coordinate to ensure it is one person per paper or per community and try for the smaller papers because they are more likely to want to print something from a local resident and they are less likely to be taking advertising dollars from telecom!

Call and Educate Your Legislators!

Check to see if your legislators are in any of these House or Senate Committees:

Commerce, Natural Resources, Transportation and Infrastructure, Agriculture, Armed Services, National/Homeland Security, Communications Media & Broadband, Rules

  • Find email and phone for Senators by state
  • Find email and phone for House of Representatives by state
  • Legislators need to know about these bills - regardless of whether they are on any of these committees

The Telecom industry has dictated what we need for far too long; 

it's time to switch the conversation.
