HD 3035 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act reducing non-ionizing radiation in early to higher education

This bill requires Massachusetts public schools and higher education institutions to reduce non-ionizing radiation exposures from wireless technology and electrical systems. Key provisions mandate schools to prioritize hard-wired internet over wireless, minimize antenna power settings, prohibit new wireless infrastructure (like small cell networks) on school property, and establish public monitoring systems tracking progress. It directly affects all public K-12 schools and state-supported colleges/universities in Massachusetts. The law establishes measurable objectives for reducing radiation, including replacing wireless with wired connections where feasible, and integrates environmental health considerations into school operations.
