RFK To BAN Cell Phones In Schools! (Jimmy Dore)

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, is on board with banning students’ cellphone use in schools.

In a March 20 interview with “Fox & Friends,” RFK Jr. applauded the states with restrictions on when students can use their personal devices while in school, saying cellphones have a negative effect on students’ mental health and academic performance.

“Cellphone use and social media use on the cellphone has been directly connected with depression, with poor performance in schools, with suicidal ideation, with substance abuse,” Kennedy said.

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the pros and cons of students having access to phones in school.
