Please act NOW to let your own legislators and the Joint Committee on Telecommunications, Utilities and Energy know today that you support H.3551 and S. 2306.
Take this quick action to protect your privacy and your right to opt out of utility meters that bathe your home in radiation!
The sister bills H.3551 and S.2306 “An Act relative to smart meters” must be reported out by December 3rd.
Smart meters use radiofrequency (RF) radiation to send utility companies billing information about electricity, water, and gas consumption, and connect users to the Internet of Things.
Smart Meter radiation can cause serious health problems, especially for children. A 2025 study partially funded by the World Health Organization determined “high certainty” that this radiation causes both cancer and DNA damage. RF radiation is also associated with infertility, anxiety, depression, insomnia and cognitive impairment.
Smart meters impinge on privacy and personal liberty issues as they transmit information about your daily living including when someone is home and which appliances and devices you are using. Utility companies can share this data with contractors and government agencies, and your data can also be hacked as it transmits through the air.
If these bills are passed, utility companies will have to provide a choice of meter type, to include an electromechanical analog meter with no RF radiation. They would also not be able to charge folks for this choice. Vermont has had a no-fee opt-out since 2012 and we should too.
Written consent would be required for the installation of any wireless meters. Within 90 days of passage of this bill, companies would need to give written notice to all customers as to whether their home currently has a “smart meter.”
