HB 563: Drenner and Hensen Try Again

There is a new bill, HB 563, on the table for the next legislative session of the Georgia House of Representatives that would do what a previous bill did not:  ban cell towers from public school grounds in DeKalb County.  So far, only two state representatives, Drenner and Hensen, have signed on to it, however.  In order for the bill to get anywhere, it will need Republican backing.

Perhaps Mike Jacobs or Tom Taylor would be willing to co-sponsor the bill in order to help DeKalb residents in their ongoing efforts to protect their children and schools from the unwanted intrusion by the telecommunications industry onto public grounds this way.   Here is the text from HB 563.  If you support this effort, please email your representative at the state.  Find your representatives here: http://www.sos.ga.gov/elections/
