DC Circ. Picks Apart FCC Over 5G Wireless Safety Review
Kelcee Griffis, Law360, Jan 25, 2021 Law360 (January 25, 2021, 6:04 PM EST) – A D.C. Circuit panel on Monday appeared skeptical of the Federal Communications Commission’s support for its own findings that cellphones and other connected devices pose no risks to human health. U.S. Circuit Judge Robert L. Wilkins questioned whether the FCC properly cited two working groups under the Federal Drug Administration’s umbrella that are supposed to monitor the possibility of wireless harms, saying the FCC failed to explore how these bodies contributed to the record and to substantiate whether they exist at all.
