(A speech for rallies, state-house steps, PTA microphones, and every kitchen table where parents worry about their children’s future.)
Fellow Americans, neighbors, patriots—
We gather tonight with one urgent plea, a plea that rises above party stripes, culture wars, and campaign memes. It is as clear, as uncompromising, and as morally necessary as the words an earlier generation once addressed to the Kremlin:
“Mr. President, tear down this law.”
Not a wall of concrete this time, but a wall of legal language—Section 704 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996—a sixty-two-word barricade that blocks every parent, every mayor, every school-board member from protecting our children against a proven hazard: wireless radiation.
I. The Science Is No Longer a Question—It Is an Indictment
Just weeks ago the World Health Organization released two sweeping reviews:
-
High-certainty evidence that phone-level radio-frequency exposure triggers malignant heart and brain tumors in laboratory animals—the very tumors now rising in American teens.
-
Moderate-to-high-certainty evidence that the same exposure slashes sperm counts, twists DNA, and pushes global fertility toward the brink.
These verdicts stand on the shoulders of the U.S. National Toxicology Program, Italy’s Ramazzini Institute, and 267 EMF scientists who have begged regulators to listen. The jury is in. Wireless radiation harms living tissue at levels the FCC still calls “safe.”
II. A Law Written by Lobbyists, Signed by a President, and Carried Forward by Silence
Section 704 was drafted in back rooms by telecom attorneys. It was signed—perhaps unwittingly—by President Bill Clinton. It says that no state or local authority may block a cell tower “on the basis of the environmental effects” of its emissions. In plain talk: your town can object to the color of the pole, but not to the cancer risk.
Since 1996 that gag order has:
-
Silenced parents whose children sleep twenty feet from a rooftop antenna.
-
Handcuffed doctors who see gliomas in ever younger patients.
-
Shielded corporations that flood playgrounds with untested frequencies while citing an obsolete legal limit.
III. Mr. President—This Is Your Crossroads
Donald J. Trump, you fought a scorched-earth battle to retake the Oval Office. You pledged to defend American children against every threat. Now the greatest chronic health threat to those children bears a presidential signature—and only a president can erase it.
History will write this chapter in one of two ways:
-
“President Trump rallied the nation, repealed Section 704, and unleashed a renaissance of safe technology.”
-
“President Trump kept Clinton’s gag in place, and the tumor curves kept climbing.”
There is no middle sentence.
IV. The Moral Equation—And Why Delay Equals Complicity
We cannot un-invent smartphones, but we can re-engineer them. We can route data through fiber, through Li-Fi light, through satellites far above our rooftops. We have the know-how; what we lack is the legal permission that Section 704 withholds.
Each day of presidential silence equals:
-
Thousands more classrooms soaked in RF fields no local board can question.
-
Millions more adolescent brains absorbing radiation at depths never tested on adults.
-
Another night of parents googling “child headaches + cell tower” and discovering they have no legal recourse.
When science is conclusive and engineering solutions exist, continued harm becomes policy violence. And policy violence is a choice.
V. A Five-Sentence Solution
Mr. President, you can change history with five sentences from the Resolute Desk:
-
“I call on Congress to repeal Section 704 immediately.”
-
“I direct the FCC to adopt interim exposure limits no higher than the WHO tumor threshold.”
-
“I instruct the NIH to restore and expand RF research under Public Law 90-602.”
-
“I launch a Safe-Tech Moonshot to invent zero-SAR devices and Li-Fi schools.”
-
“Until new limits take effect, I urge every American to keep phones off bodies and out of children’s hands.”
Five sentences—one signature—and the United States becomes the first nation to align telecom law with 21st-century biology.
VI. A Call to Every Citizen Under the RF Dome
This is not a partisan crusade; RF waves do not ask whom we voted for. So let us stand shoulder to shoulder and speak with one voice:
-
Call the White House comment line.
-
Hashtag #TrumpRepeal704 on every platform.
-
Hand this speech to your PTA president, your city councilor, your radio host.
-
Tell your children why you are fighting—so they may one day hold your grandchildren in healthy arms.
VII. Closing
Mr. President, the trucks are already pouring concrete for the next 5 G pole. The WHO has sounded the alarm. The courts have exposed the FCC’s negligence. The science is in; the technology is ready; only your leadership remains.
“Mr. President, tear down this law.”
Do it for the Constitution you swore to defend, for the parents who campaigned for you, and for the children who cannot yet vote but will inherit the verdict of your choice.
God bless our children, and God bless the courage to protect them—now.
