Honored to have @GregAbbott_TX in Amarillo today to sign two of my bills into law — the App Store Accountability Act and Phone-Free Schools. Proud to see Texas leading the way for parents, kids, and classrooms!

Don’t be hoodwinked here! This is an over step by the state. Local school districts should be making their own policies and decisions NOT the state. Dig into how much $$$ this bill made the vendors and lobbyists. Follow the money. It’s interesting Abbott won’t address getting rid of all the technology in the schools 🤔 BigTech makes Big Bucks 🤑 for the evil, greedy politicians, bureaucrats, special interests, and lobbyists.

This is NOT the role of our state gov’t! It is an ISD issue. Why is TXLege hell-bent on making more laws, limiting LIBERTY? @PatrickJCurry1 @FairlyForTexas @GovAbbottPress @brianeharrison

Yeah, feels good to know my kid can't reach out to me to tell me she's ok if a school shooting happens.

How about kicking the federal government out of Texas. The State Sovereignty Act.

And since TASB was pushing your bill, why would ANY conservative vote or support it?

Now, because of your bill, this is being imposed on 5.5 million kids. This is a huge safety issue. Meanwhile, it doesn’t solve the problem as kids will still be on Chromebooks all day!

Students have also been the ones reporting school shootings and bullying issues. ISDs are now are telling parents to send any messages through the office. Since when does a parent need to share personal information with a gvmt employee to get to their child?!!

Leave the parenting to the parents. We want smaller government, not bigger, you globalist tool.

Actually, I want my son to have his phone at school…with predators as teachers and shooters coming in, I feel safer if he can reach me immediately.

Over the past month, my children have been spending more time on studying and sports, rather than being glued to their phones watching mindless short-form videos. This positive change is entirely thanks to the bill you proposed! Thanks so much!

So you want to tell parents what they can & can’t allow for their kids. You need to be voted out

Love seeing real action on phone-free schools! SmartLock Solutions is building secure, American-made devices that keep classrooms focused and give staff instant emergency override when needed—safer and smarter than traditional lock bags. #PhoneFreeSchools

I dont need you dictating whats best for my kids. This state doesnt have enough protections in place to keep kids from getting shot in school and youre focused on cell phones. Lock the cell phones up so if there's a shooting they can't call anyone. JUST DUMB!

This is a horrible bill that removes parental rights in Texas. For someone who is not even a parent to be the bill author is incredibly irresponsible. You have just removed the ability for students to record the bad behavior of admin and teachers, which has proven powerful!

Children died in the recent flooding because they didn’t have phones! Do you know this @FairlyForTexas ? The first thing camps do is take away cell phones. That’s the reason these babies didn’t evacuate. Because they didn’t know! They relied upon adults who slept thru alarms.

Do your precious private schools have to follow the cell phone ban?
