Governor Pushes for Statewide Phone Ban in Schools
Description
Governor Bob Ferguson is pushing for a statewide ban on student cellphones in public schools, a proposal that’s been stalled for years despite strong support from educators and parents worried about distraction and mental health. With 29 other states already implementing bans and Washington lagging behind, the governor plans to tour the state this summer, introduce legislation by December, and aim for implementation by next fall—framing it as a critical step to keep Washington from being the last state to act.
