The bill provides ZERO funding to states but mandates immediate implementation. States estimate $20-50M each in startup costs alone. That’s a $1-2.5B unfunded mandate. And it exempts itself from the Paperwork Reduction Act.

A bell-to-bell school cellphone ban is about to become law in Indiana. Here’s what it could look like. Schools would have to decide whether to ask students to leave their phones and smartwatches at home, or provide them with a place to store the devices at school.

This is what Indiana is doing. Bell to Bell. No money for materials that might be needed. This is an #UNFUNDEDMANDATE. Come on #PA, we can do better with #SB1014 @pahousedems.com #www.chalkbeat.org/indiana/2026/02/25/stric...

#SB1014 which just passed the #PASenate is heading to the #PAHouse. This bill, as written, represents a potential #unfundedmandate as written. Please keep the policy & regulation over electronic devices with #SchoolBoards & admin's in the 500+ #publicschools in PA. @pasenate.com @pahousedems.com

This is fine, if needed, but is it just another #UnfundedMandate or will they appropriate the funds to stock, maintain and replace? Oh, and how about passing that #PAStateBudget and #FullyFundingPublicSchools?

#SB727 was written by someone who encourages people to UNALIVE themselves! And was an #UnfundedMandate on Municipalities that did NOTHING to Address #Cancer in people who went to school AFTER the 1970s.

Ding Dong #SB727 is DEAD! 👏👏👏

GOOD RIDDANCE!
