This proposed bill is a problem not limited to amateur radio operators.
It will also affect those involved in engaging in making a living, as it
would
encompass taxi drivers, commercial vehicle operators, public and private
bus operators -- who use two-way radios. We simply can't afford that
kind of limitation during the current economic downturn.
Also affected would be state, federal and military law enforcement officers.
It is a good thing that maritime and aeronautical operations are excluded
from the scope of the current language.
We need to contact our representatives immediately on the City Council,
and encourage
a rewrite of the law to exempt two-way radios from the language, and help
them with the original intent of the bill which is to discourage the
active use
of texting, and possibly hands-on cell phone usage. We simply cannot have
the unintended impact on our county economy at this time.
