Cell phone usage and restriction in schools has become a hot topic over the past several years. Educators are worried not only about distractions in the classroom, but also about the negative mental health effects constant connection to phones has on young people. The Utah State Legislature says they want to tackle this issue in the 2025 General Session. State Senator Lincoln Fillmore is sponsoring a bill that would give school districts more power to restrict cell phones, and joins the program to share insights on the proposed legislation.
