Hi ,

If you know anyone in NY, please forward this to them!

From Americans for Responsible Technology:

New York's Amazing Smart Meter Bill

It's true! New York State now has a bill pending in the legislature that would set the model for the country. The bill guarantees that any utility customer can opt-out of a digital utility meter and keep their analog meter without penalty or cost.

• People who currently have existing digital meters can have them replaced with analog meters.
• People who live in apartments can have their own meter changed to an analog meter.
• And people who suffer from sensitivity to EMF/RF radiation can get expedited service to have their meters changed.

It's a landmark bill, wiping out a patchwork of different utility policies that discriminate against people who live in certain areas.

BUT....

Now we have to demonstrate widespread support for this bill. That means phone calls, letters, emails, smoke signals and any other kind of communication to NY state legislators telling them to support and co-sponsor this legislation.

Help Us Reach the Big 24!

Now it's time to concentrate our calls and emails on the 24 individuals in the NY legislature who can make or break the Smart Meter Bill (see the list here). They are the 7 members of the Senate Consumer Protection Committee and the 17 members of the Assembly Energy Committee. Unless and until the bill passes out of those two committees, it will never get a vote.
