Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Horne wants to ban cell phones from classrooms, and he’s looking for legislative help to do that.
Horne held a press conference Aug. 22 on revisiting legislation to ban student cell phone use in classrooms across the state. The proposed bill echoes House Bill 2793 that was vetoed by Gov. Katie Hobbs last session.
HB 2793 was sponsored by District 28 Republican Rep. Beverly Pingerelli, whose district includes portions of Peoria and north Phoenix as well as Sun City and Sun City West.
