Legislators brace for battle over cell phone bans
During a recent government meeting, board members unanimously approved a facility use agreement following a recommendation from the Facilities Committee. The motion was seconded by Andy Lake and passed with affirmative votes from all present members, indicating strong support for the agreement.

The meeting also addressed upcoming legislative updates, with a focus on the potential banning of cell phones in schools. A representative noted that while activity on Capitol Hill is currently subdued, discussions around cell phone bans are expected to intensify in the coming months. Several schools in the state have already implemented some form of restriction, and three states—identified as Florida and South Carolina—have enacted total bans on cell phones in educational settings. The representative highlighted that this issue is likely to be contentious, as noted by JC Bowman, a well-known figure in the education sector, who anticipates significant debate surrounding the proposed legislation.
