Lawmakers Move to Ban Cellphones in Schools

Lawmakers Move to Ban Cellphones in Schools

A group of Massachusetts lawmakers and MA Attorney General Andrea Campbell have filed legislation aimed at cracking down on student cellphone use at public schools through the state. The legislation is being referred to as the “STUDY Act,” which “seeks to implement a “bell-to-bell" restriction on access to cell phones and personal electronic devices during school hours to improve the overall learning environment and school culture.” Similar bans are gaining popularity in both red and blues states across the country…Are you in favor or opposed to banning cellphones in schools?

Sen. Julian Cyr checked in with Dan to discuss.
