The Green-Rainbow Party (GRP) State Committee approved this proposal on January 4, 2020.
PROPOSAL: The Green-Rainbow Party (GRP) demands a moratorium on 5G implementation in Massachusetts until a full, extensive and independent assessment of the technology is completed and public hearings are conducted. 5G should not be implemented until the safety of people and the environment is assured.
Β
TITLE: Oppose 5G
SPONSORS: GRP Co-chair Maha Visnu and CDLC member Maureen Doyle and GRP Statecom member Joshua Gerloff.
COSPONSORS: GRP Statecom members David Rolde and Jed Stamas.
FLOOR MANAGER: Joshua Gerloff.
SUMMARY: We oppose this 5G based on the 10 Key Values of the Green Party.
As verbiage in the Ecological Wisdom Key Value says: βWe support a sustainable society that utilizes resources in such a way that future generations will benefit and not suffer from the practices of our generation. To this end, we mustβ¦ live in ways that respect the integrity of natural systems.β Scientific assurances must be made that 5G is not a hazard to human health, biosphere integrity, etc. There are too many unknown effects from the 5G system for us to embrace it at this time.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
IMPLEMENTATION: Opposition can include a statement on the website, letters to various media, contacting state and federal legislators and local officials, and direct action if necessary. This opposition needs to include that the GRP demand a moratorium on 5G implementation in the state of Massachusetts until a full, extensive and independent assessment of the technology is completed and public hearings are conducted.
