A Kentucky lawmaker has introduced a bill that would ban the use of cell phones by public school students during classes. Representative Josh Bray of Mount Vernon said he’s received overwhelming support for the bill, including emails from around the nation after he appeared on Fox News Sunday.

“We need to get cell phones out of the classroom. Whether that means, you know, they need to be put away, they need to be turned off and to be left in lockers. You know, we don't need kids surfing YouTube and filming Tik Tok videos and all texting their buddies while they're in class.”
