💨 Abstract

California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law on Monday that requires schools to limit or ban smartphone use, citing concerns over mental health risks and learning impairment from excessive usage. Thirteen other states have taken similar measures this year. The new California law, which will be implemented by July 2026, aims to help students focus on academics and social development rather than screens during school hours.
