Alabama lawmakers vote to ban cellphone use in K-12 public schools

Montgomery, Ala. – Alabama will soon join the states that have banned or restricted the presence of cellphones in schools.

Alabama Senate on Wednesday K -12 voted for students to ban students from using school days in public schools. The phones must “turn off and their person to save a locker, car or similar storage at the guideline day.”

The bill now goes to Alabama Governor K Ivy for his signature. Ivy used a portion of his state address earlier this year, calling for lawyers to pass the cellphone ban.

Republican Sen Donnie Chestin said, “The school system in which it was implemented, it worked.”

Many schools already prohibit the use of devices. The law will require all school systems. Alabama bill leaves in schools on how the bill can save devices.

Cellphones are about to restrict or limit the growing number of state schools. This push is encouraged by anxiety that the phones have a confusion in the classroom and the time of that screen and social media has a negative impact on mental health.

Arkansas, California, Florida, Indiana, Louisiana, Minnesota, Ohio, South Carolina and Virginia have taken measures to restrict or restrict the use of cellphones for students in schools. Similar bills have been proposed in multiple statements across the country.

Republican Sen Chris Eliot tried failed to add an amendment to a discount for communicating with their parents.

Eliot said, “If you pass it, you are going to hear from parents back and they are not able to contact their child about the cancellation of practice, a car is breaking,” Eliot said.
