    To All:

    Attached is my letter to President Keefe and Members of the Board of Trustees regarding NJSBA's 5G Technology Seminars. I know it's a long letter but I'm hoping you'll take the time to read it.

    FYI: The wireless industry has been busy blocking the rights of citizens and local governments to control thousands of installations of cellular antennas in the public right-of-way.[1] The 5G antennas being deployed include high-band radiation waves ranging from 30 to 300 GHz (or billions of cycles per second). These high intensity waves are absorbed in your skin and through the cornea of your eye.[2] The radiation levels emitted from these 5G antennas are similar to airport scanners, which have been linked to cancers.  People may argue about the risks associated with airport scanners,[3] but there's one thing for sure: passing through an airport scanner usually only takes a few seconds.  However, having one of these refrigerator-sized "small" cell antennas installed in close proximity to your home or business will be constant exposure.[4]

    Thanks - Bill
