Massachusetts for Safe Technology
Summary of 2025-26 Bills
Thank you to our Senators and State Representatives for directly sponsoring six bills this session to ensure technology safety, several of which advanced out of committee in prior sessions (click to see history). We recognize public policy in Massachusetts is a marathon, not a sprint. Now that safe technology bills have been in the legislature for more than a decade, we hope this session Massachusetts will take meaningful action to address wireless radiation harms. Note, when bills are first introduced, they are given "docket" numbers (SD.xxxx or HD.xxxx) then later converted to full bill numbers once committee members are appointed and bills are assigned to committees.
Please contact your State Senator and Representative to encourage co-sponsorship and full passage of these critical bills. Ask organizations to which you belong to do the same. Sponsorships can be added usually up until the bill's public hearing.
Send a statement of support to the committees for each bill; if you are comfortable, please cc: MA4SafeTech@gmail.org so we can monitor what's coming in.

If you are not in Massachusetts, please consider using these bills to ask your own legislators to file similar bills to address man-made radiation where you are. Additional states are already introducing bills.

Current Bills
S.2306 An Act relative to smart meters is sponsored by Senator Michael O. Moore and assigned to the Joint Committee on Telecommunications, Utilities and Energy. S.2306 requires a no-fee wireless meter opt-out and includes an emergency pre-amble, "Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to maintain public health, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public health." This bill is in its sixth session.
H.3551 An Act relative to smart meters is sponsored by Rep. Estela Reyes in the House to mirror Senator Moore's Senate bill, and is also assigned to the Joint Committee on Telecommunications, Utilities and Energy.
Resolve S.216 Resolve relative to disclosure of radio frequency notifications is sponsored by Senator Julian Cyr and has been assigned to the Joint Committee on Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure. Resolve S.216 requires an investigation and study by a special commission relative to disclosure of radio frequency notifications. This bill is in its fifth session.
S.408 An Act relative to best management practices for wireless in schools and public institutions of higher education is sponsored by Senator Paul W. Mark and assigned to the Joint Committee on Education. S.408 requires the MA Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to establish best practices that protect the health and safety of public school students and staff. This bill is in its fifth session.
S.1175 An Act prohibiting injurious operations or offering services or products that discriminate against or injure protected classes is sponsored by Senator Paul W. Mark and has been assigned to the Joint Committee on the Judiciary. S.1175 prohibits injurious operations or offering services or products that discriminate against or injure protected classes. While this bill does not specify particular protected classes, it would codify that those with electromagnetic radiation syndrom (EMR-S) and all other disabilities have a right to ask for reasonable accommodations.
H.2413 An Act recognizing EMS as a disease dangerous to the public health, requiring inclusion in MAVEN, establishing the Massachusetts EMS registry and requiring biennial reporting as part of population health trends is sponsored by Representative Tricia Farley-Bouvier and is assigned to the Joint Committee on Public Health. H.2413 requires the Department of Public Health to add electromagnetic sensitivity (EMS) to the list of diseases dangerous to the public health.
Note: There are over 60 pieces of legislation introduced this session that have "wireless" in the language. Some are protective, others are permissive to industry for fast-tracking technology that pulsates toxic radiation. See malegislature.gov/Search?SearchTerms=wireless.
