We must not allow the telecom industry to plaster our communities with cell towers!
Congress is moving fast on H.R. 2289, a bill that would let federal agencies and telecom companies override your community’s voice and force cell towers wherever they want, next to your house, your child’s school, in the midst of your community. This is a full-scale federal takeover — speak out NOW before it’s too late.
H.R. 2289 is a federal power grab.
Let’s be clear: This is not “streamlining”. It represents a serious shift of power away from local authorities, states, and the people who actually live in these communities.
This is a federal power grab that takes authority away from local governments and gives it to Washington, D.C. and the telecom industry.
It strips away the environmental and historic-preservation reviews that help protect our neighborhoods, parks, schools, and historic areas from unchecked wireless expansion.
If H.R. 2289 passes, every community in America is at risk of:
- More antennas and equipment added to cell towers near homes, schools, and parks
- No meaningful environmental oversight
- No historic-preservation review for sensitive or culturally important sites
- Little to no notice before major tower upgrades
- Federal decisions overriding local concerns and community priorities
Local governments and residents would be silenced. Telecom and federal agencies would gain even more control.
We cannot allow that to happen. No community should lose its voice in decisions that directly affect its safety, character, and future.
Your Representative needs to hear from you right now.
Use the form below to tell Congress to Vote NO on H.R. 2289 — and stop this nationwide federal takeover of local cell tower decisions.
