Kelly Expands White House Ban on Cell Phones

White House chief of staff John Kelly issued a memo to staff outlining the administration’s new ban on personal cell phones within the West Wing complex of the White House, ABC News reports.

The policy goes further than originally expected and is not just limited to personal cell phones. It also includes laptops, smartwatches and “devices with WiFi, Bluetooth, radio, or cellular capabilities” and “any portable device that emits an electric signal and was not issued by the White House Communications Agency.”
