An Act establishing a commission to limit first responder radiation exposure

This bill establishes a special commission in Massachusetts to study radiation exposure risks for first responders. The commission will examine how technologies emitting radiation (from 0 to 300 gigahertz) affect police, firefighters, and emergency personnel, including current exposure levels, new communication systems like FirstNet, and health impacts. It will identify engineering solutions, safety improvements, and best practices to reduce radiation exposure, while ensuring emergency services remain effective. The commission must submit an initial report by December 2026 and a final report by March 2027. The bill does not enact new regulations but directs a fact-finding process to inform future policy.
