To HHS,

I experience symptoms such as headaches, heart racing, palpitations, irritability, and insomnia when exposed to wireless signals. I live in a shielded home with no wireless inside to help minimize exposure. I'm concerned that the United States has not adopted sufficiently precautionary policies to minimize public exposure to wireless radiation, particularly for people who report sensitivity.

Other countries have demonstrated that stronger protective measures are possible. For example, France restricts the installation and use of wireless internet equipment in certain childcare settings and requires Wi-Fi in primary school classrooms to be switched off when not used for educational activities. Some European countries have also adopted stricter radio frequency exposure limits or additional protections for sensitive locations. I believe the United States should carefully examine these international approaches and consider stronger protections for public health. Section 704 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 restricts local governments from regulating cell tower placement based on the environmental effects of compliant radio frequency emissions, and I disagree with that restriction. Communities should be able to consider health concerns when deciding where towers go.

Thank you for your consideration.
