Bipartisan bill seeks nationwide school cellphone ban

Original: Bipartisan bill seeks to ban cellphones in schools nationwide

A group of US lawmakers from both parties has introduced a bill that would ban cellphone use in schools across the country. The proposal reflects a growing movement among states and districts to restrict phones in classrooms, driven by concerns over student focus, mental health and bullying. Support and opposition are shaping up along questions of local control and enforcement.

Why now: Congressional action on school phone restrictions touches an active national debate over children's screen time and learning.
