Classroom cell phone ban passes Michigan House with overwhelming support

The Michigan House passed a bill banning cell phones in classrooms, with 99-10 votes, aiming to improve student focus and reduce distractions. The bipartisan bill, spearheaded by Rep. Mark Tisdel, seeks to mitigate issues like cyberbullying and physical fights stemming from social media use. Students can still use their devices outside class, and exemptions exist for medical reasons and emergencies. The bill now moves to the Michigan Senate.
