Newsom seeks to restrict students' cellphone use in schools: 'Harming the mental health of our youth'
Fox News
California Gov. Gavin Newsom said Tuesday he wants to work with state lawmakers to restrict students' smartphone use during the school day
Newsom and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, have warned for years about the harm of social media to children, saying tech companies have been blocking efforts to protect young people.
Last year, Newsom called on NetChoice to drop a lawsuit against the children's online safety law, the Age-Appropriate Design Code Act, that he signed in 2022. NetChoice, whose members include tech giants like Meta, Amazon and Google, is a trade association that advocates for free expression and free enterprise on the internet.
