Why Michigan students will still have phones in school despite rising pressure to restrict them

A Michigan bill to ban cellphone use for all K-12 students failed in the state House by three votes despite 74% US public support. The legislation would have restricted phones during school hours for different age groups but faced opposition from key Democrats amid political tensions. The bill’s author plans to rewrite a stricter version. Governor Gretchen Whitmer supports phone restrictions, but the bill’s future remains uncertain, as reported by WLNS.
