Open Letter to San Francisco Supervisors


Open Letter to San Francisco Supervisors

Dear Board of Supervisors,


I strongly urge you to maintain your Cell Phone Right to Know legislation which provides consumers with precautionary health information that is usually provided in the fine print of cell phone manuals.

As you may already know, May is National Brain Tumor Awareness Month. What kind of a message would the city of San Francisco be sending to cancer patients and citizens if it were to dissolve it's cell phone safety bill during this month? Even worse, what would residents say if they knew the bill was dropped because the city was intimidated by the cost of cell phone companies' attorney fees? 

While you debate the bill this week, I think it's important to note that on Thursday, May 2nd politicians in Maine are voting on whether they will pass cell phone safety legislation. This is a clear indication that San Francisco is on the right track. 

Even if you personally do not have enough information to decide whether cell phone radiation is dangerous or not, listen to what doctors in your community are saying: "There's enough cause to pause." The following is a list of doctors and influential individuals who are on the side of cell phone safety and urge you to stand by the legislation: 

Deleted because permission to use their names was not granted.

I have personally interviewed and spoken to all of the individuals above about this issue. If you're interested to view and hear their personal statements here is a private link to a feature length documentary about this legislation: _______

I strongly urge you to watch the film above before you make your final decision about the bill. This issue is a matter of public health and you can not allow money to change your opinion about what people have the right to know. 

Thank you very much for your time,

Kevin Kunze,
Director, Mobilize: A Film About Cell Phone Radiation
