S3695\/A4882<\/a>) include Senators Paul Moriarty and Kristin Corrado, along with Assembly Members Rosy Bagolie, Cody Miller, and Carmen Theresa Morales.<\/p>\n\u201cCell phones are a big part of today\u2019s society, but excessive use can have negative effects on the academic performance and mental health of school-aged children,\u201d\u00a0said Senate President Nick Scutari<\/strong>. \u201cThis law will give school districts\u00a0the ability to adopt policies for the best use of cell phones and social media so that students aren\u2019t distracted and their educational experience isn\u2019t disrupted. It will help ensure that school classrooms are focused on learning.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cNew Jersey is blessed\u00a0to have a public school system that consistently ranks among the best in the nation. When parents and teachers are telling us that cell phones are becoming a daily distraction in the classroom and beyond, it became\u00a0incumbent upon us to listen and respond,\u201d said Assembly Speaker Craig J. Coughlin<\/strong>. \u00a0\u201cOur students deserve the best possible chance at success, and by giving school districts the guidance and tools they need to help students stay focused, we are creating learning environments that will keep young minds fully present in the classroom.”<\/p>\n\u201cDistractions are abundant in our digital age, making it difficult for students to disconnect from social media, gaming, and other online activities to focus on learning,\u201d said Senate Majority Leader M. Teresa Ruiz<\/strong>. \u201cOur schools must be incubators for academic growth first and foremost. By requiring districts to develop policies limiting cell phone access in the classroom, we can create more productive learning environments, improve student outcomes, and give power back to teachers and school leaders.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cOur classrooms should encourage learning while minimizing distractions,\u201d said Senate Republican Leader Anthony M. Bucco<\/strong>. \u201cBy giving schools clear guidance on cell phone and social media use, we\u2019re helping students stay focused, fostering healthier learning environments, and protecting their well-being in an age where the pressures from digital and social media are everywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cClassrooms should be places where students are fully engaged in learning, building relationships, and developing critical thinking skills,\u201d said Senator Vin Gopal, Chair of the Senate Education Committee<\/strong>. \u201cBy establishing clear, statewide guidelines for the use of internet-enabled devices, this law gives school districts the tools they need to reduce distractions while still allowing for thoughtful, appropriate use of technology. It is a balanced approach that supports student focus, mental well-being, and academic success.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cAs the Chair of the Assembly Education Committee, I want to make sure we are doing everything we can to ensure New Jersey\u2019s students are able to achieve academic success. I frequently hear about the detrimental effects of\u00a0students using phones and other devices in schools. Quite simply, students can’t learn if they’re constantly on their devices while the teacher is teaching,” said Assemblywoman Verlina Reynolds-Jackson, Chair of the Assembly Education Committee<\/strong>. “The legislation recognizes that individual school districts should be free to create their own policies on the use of internet-enabled devices, empowered with guidelines developed by the State. It\u2019s one more way we\u2019re continuing to keep New Jersey as a national leader in education.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cIn today\u2019s day and age, cell phones and social media have advanced far from their original concepts and, unfortunately, have been widely reported as heavy contributors to the youth mental health crisis,\u201d said Senator Kristin Corrado<\/strong>. \u201cWith this policy, students will be able to better focus on their schoolwork and we can help ensure our children do not fall victim to the perils of social media at such a young age.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cThis legislation is designed to create a more focused learning environment and reduce distractions,\u201d said Assemblyman Cody Miller<\/strong>. \u201cThese policies are not about punishment, but about helping students build healthier habits and giving them the best possible chance to succeed in the classroom.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cYoung people depend on adults to make responsible decisions that support their learning and long-term success,\u201d\u00a0said Assemblywoman Carmen Morales<\/strong>. \u201cEducators have recognized the risks of unlimited access to internet-enabled devices, which can allow students to disengage at times when their focus and effort are most needed. By providing school boards with guidance on how to address this issue, we can better support students who truly deserve every opportunity to succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cI was an early advocate for addressing cell phone use in schools, and I\u2019m pleased to see this legislation become law.\u00a0 It provides clear guidance on student cell phone use while ensuring districts retain the flexibility to tailor policies to their communities. It\u2019s a thoughtful approach that supports learning, safety, and local control,\u201d\u00a0said Assemblywoman Aura Dunn<\/strong>.<\/p>\n“The Balance Project is thrilled to see New Jersey taking this vital step to eliminate digital distractions in schools,\u201d\u00a0said Holly Moscatiello, Founder of The Balance Project<\/strong>. \u201cWe applaud Governor Murphy and the State Legislature for prioritizing safe, healthy learning environments, and will continue to support efforts to protect classrooms from the digital overload that disrupts learning and fuels anxiety.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cWe applaud Governor Murphy and the Legislature for passing this law to reduce classroom distractions,\u201d\u00a0said NJEA President Steve Beatty<\/strong>. \u201cAs a career educator I understand that technology plays a role in education, but that it should not be allowed to get in the way of engaged learning. Giving students a break from their phones will improve their mental health and create stronger classroom communities. That\u2019s a win for everyone.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\u201cAt Ramsey School District, our phone-free policy has fundamentally transformed the daily experience for our students. By removing the distraction of the cell phone, we have reclaimed the classroom as a space for deep academic focus and critical thinking. Teachers report a significant increase in student engagement during instructional time. Since implementing our phone-free policy at Ramsey, the ‘sound’ of our hallways has changed,\u201d\u00a0said Andrew C. Matteo, PhD, Superintendent of Schools, Ramsey School District<\/strong>. \u201cInstead of heads-down silence, there is a tangible energy of conversation and laughter. We\u2019ve moved from digital distractions back to genuine human connection, allowing students to be fully present with one another and their teachers.<\/p>\n“By removing the digital barrier that phones create, we have seen an immediate resurgence in student connection,\u201d\u00a0said Michael Thumm, Ed.D., Principal of Ramsey High School<\/strong>. \u201cThese phone-free moments do more than improve the school day; they cultivate the interpersonal skills and presence that will serve our students as they build relationships and collaborate throughout their lives.”<\/p>\n\u201cA bell-to-bell cell phone policy has positively transformed the culture of our Junior-Senior High Campus. Students are more engaged in class, interactions are more authentic, and we\u2019ve seen tremendous improvements in overall school climate and student well-being,\u201d\u00a0said Andrew T. Bell Sr., Superintendent, Woodbury City Public Schools<\/strong>. \u201cThis legislation reflects a thoughtful, student-centered approach to learning that supports both academic success and mental health. We appreciate the Governor\u2019s leadership in listening to students and advancing a policy that puts learning first.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cThere are no words strong enough to fully capture how a bell-to-bell cell phone ban has transformed our high school. Students are noticeably happier, engaged\/present in their classrooms, and connected to one another. We have a stark increase in students achieving honor roll and a huge decrease in negative student behavior,\u201d\u00a0said Dwayne Dobbins Jr., Acting Co-Principal of Woodbury Junior- Senior High School<\/strong>. \u201cThis legislation has the power to redefine the culture of New Jersey\u2019s public schools, and it is my sincere hope that building leaders across the state will experience the same profound and positive impact that we have seen in the city of Woodbury.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cThis legislation reflects moral seriousness and intellectual honesty about the developmental needs of children,\u201d\u00a0said Dr. Anthony B. Bradley, PhD, Research Professor of Interdisciplinary and Theological Studies at Kuyper College<\/strong>. \u201cAs researchers have shown, constant access to internet-enabled devices during the school day is strongly associated with rising anxiety, diminished attention, and weakened academic engagement. By setting clear, age-appropriate boundaries while preserving necessary accommodations for health, safety, and learning, New Jersey is choosing evidence over ideology. This is not anti-technology \u2013 it is pro-child. The state is affirming that schools exist to cultivate focused learning and psychological well-being, not to serve as extensions of the attention economy.\u201d<\/p>\n“Banning phones will help our teachers serve all students better \u2014 perhaps especially our boys, who are lagging well behind in the classroom. The opportunity here is to invest in real-life, boy-friendly alternatives to screen time both inside and outside the classroom: hands-on learning, attractive extracurricular activities, sports, and much more,\u201d\u00a0said Richard V. Reeves, President of the American Institute for Boys and Men<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\u201cScreen Aware Montclair applauds Governor Murphy and the New Jersey legislature for their efforts to adopt common sense cell phone and social media policies for schools across New Jersey,\u201d\u00a0said Jordan Goldberg, Screen Aware Montclair, Lead Member<\/strong>. \u201cWe look forward to seeing the DOE\u2019s recommendations and strongly encourage the adoption of bell-to-bell cell phone policies that keep cell phones out of the schools during the entirety of the school day.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n“We believe that strict, enforceable regulation of cell phones and other internet-enabled devices will promote school environments that allow students to achieve their highest potential and teachers to focus on providing high-quality instruction,\u201d\u00a0said Elisabeth \u201cBetsy\u201d Ginsburg, Executive Director, Garden State Coalition of Schools<\/strong>. \u201cThis bill gives boards of education the tools they need to achieve that goal, and we commend the sponsors and Governor Murphy for bringing it to fruition.”<\/p>\n“We support Governor Murphy\u2019s signing of legislation S3695\/A4882, which establishes important guidelines for student use of internet\u2011enabled devices,\u201d\u00a0said Jacqueline Gibbs, President of the New Jersey Parent Teacher Association<\/strong>. \u201cWe look forward to working in partnership with the Department of Education to ensure a thoughtful, effective implementation that supports students, families, and school communities.”<\/p>\n“On behalf of the New Jersey School Board Association, we welcome this legislation as it provides our districts with clear guidance to create learning environments where students can focus on academics and meaningful peer interaction. School board members across the state have heard from educators about the challenges posed by constant device access in classrooms,\u201d\u00a0said Dr. Timothy J. Purnell, Executive Director\/CEO of the New Jersey School Boards Association<\/strong>. \u201cThis law empowers our schools to prioritize instructional time and student engagement, and we look forward to working with our districts to implement these policies effectively.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\u201cThe New Jersey Association of School Administrators (NJASA) strongly supports this legislation as a thoughtful and balanced approach to managing student use of internet-enabled devices in schools. By establishing clear statewide guidelines \u2014 while preserving local decision-making authority\u2014this bill helps districts reduce instructional distractions, promote student well-being, and maintain necessary flexibility for health, safety, and educational needs,\u201d\u00a0said Dr. Richard Bozza, Executive Director, New Jersey Association of School Administrators<\/strong>. \u201cNJASA appreciates the collaborative development process, the emphasis on age-appropriate implementation, and the common-sense accommodations built into the bill, and we look forward to supporting districts as these guidelines are implemented across New Jersey.\u201d<\/p>\n“Without the distractions of cell phones, students will be able to better focus on learning critical thinking skills,\u201d\u00a0said Gabrielle “Gab” Casieri, MLIS, President, New Jersey Association of School Librarians<\/strong>. \u201cSchool library media specialists are ready to assist students in mastering those valuable lifelong skills.”<\/p>\n“JerseyCAN supports the passage of (S3695\/A4882), which prohibits the non-academic use of cell phones, social media and internet-enabled devices during the school day. This legislation, focused on distraction-free schools, aptly recognizes that protecting instructional and learning time is of paramount importance to student success,\u201d\u00a0said Paula White, Executive Director, JerseyCAN<\/strong>. \u201cThe legislation also prioritizes students’ mental health and well-being, which is equally crucial for students to thrive.”<\/p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s so easy to become consumed with our smartphones and other internet-enabled devices, responding to texts, scrolling through social media or playing video games \u2014 but those actions are not conducive to learning,\u201d\u00a0said AFTNJ President Jennifer S. Higgins<\/strong>. \u201cSigning S3695\/A4882 into law will help to minimize such temptations and distractions during school hours and keep students engaged with their classwork \u2014 and, equally as important, engaged with each other.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\u201cThis legislation is an important milestone for New Jersey\u2019s students, reinforcing the need for learning environments that support focus, well-being, and meaningful engagement,\u201d\u00a0said Olga Polites, the State Advocacy Leader in New Jersey for Media Literacy Now<\/strong>. \u201cBy setting clear expectations around cell phone use, the state is also creating space for students to build essential media literacy skills \u2013 helping them think critically about the information they encounter and preparing them to be informed, engaged participants in our democracy.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cThe New Jersey Library Association commends Governor Murphy and the Legislature for advancing policies that keep student learning at the center of how technology is used in New Jersey\u2019s public schools,\u201d\u00a0said Lorraine Ruiz, President, New Jersey Library Association<\/strong>. \u201cBy guiding districts to develop age-appropriate, research-informed expectations for when and how students use internet-enabled devices during the school day, this legislation helps ensure that digital tools support focus, deepen engagement with instruction, and expand access to high-quality learning resources. Librarians play a vital role in this effort by helping students navigate information online, integrate technology into their coursework thoughtfully, and build the critical thinking and digital literacy skills they need to thrive as lifelong learners.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n“The New Jersey Public Charter Schools Association supports this important new law and accompanying grant funding to help charters and other public schools achieve the goal of distraction-free classrooms,\u201d\u00a0said T.J. Best, Senior Advisor for the New Jersey Public Charter Schools Association<\/strong>. \u201cPublic charter schools have been among the first in our state to take steps to ensure that when students are in the building they are learning and growing, not swiping and scrolling. This measure will help promote better youth mental health and student success in the digital age. We thank Governor Murphy, Assemblywoman Bagolie, and all the other sponsors for their leadership for our children.\u201d<\/p>\n“The Latino Action Network applauds the enactment of S3695\/A4882, a measure that carries particular importance for Latino students across New Jersey. For Latino students\u2014who are disproportionately concentrated in under resourced districts where instructional time is already stretched thin\u2014this bill is a critical step toward leveling the playing field and strengthening academic outcomes statewide,\u201d\u00a0said Javier Robles, President, Latino Action Network<\/strong>. \u201cWe thank the Governor and Legislature for taking this meaningful step to support the well-being and long term success of Latino youth.”<\/p>\n\u201cInternet enabled device use in children requires careful guidance from appropriate experts and its influence on child and adolescent mental health is critically important to consider,\u201d\u00a0said the New Jersey Psychiatric Association<\/strong>. \u201cThe role and use of cell phones, social media and the internet in youth is also important to consider when providing guidance to individuals across the state. The New Jersey Psychiatric Association thanks Governor Murphy and the legislature for shining a light on this issue and taking steps to protect New Jersey\u2019s youth. The NJPA will continue to focus its psychiatric expertise on sharing the evidenced-based approach to achieve this goal.\u201d<\/p>\n“We welcome Governor Murphy\u2019s signing into law of direct support for school districts to adopt and implement policies on cell phone use during the school day,\u201d\u00a0said Julie Larrea Borst, Executive Director, Save Our Schools NJ<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\u201cAs a parent, I think about the world my son will grow up in every day\u2014and I\u2019m genuinely thrilled to see New Jersey and Governor Murphy taking this step,\u201d\u00a0said Pearl Gabel, Co-Chair of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>. \u201cThis bill cuts through the noise, literally and figuratively. Phones are everywhere, all the time, and it\u2019s rewiring how kids learn, focus, and connect. We are giving students the space to tune in and be present in the world and with each other.\u00a0<\/p>\n\u201cFor more than a generation, smartphones have steadily encroached on the daily lives of our children\u2014fueling anxiety, rewarding distraction, and weakening the human connections that make deep learning possible. Over that same period, New Jersey has seen academic standards slip and student readiness decline. We did not arrive here overnight, and we will not fix it overnight. But today, we begin the work of turning the page,\u201d\u00a0said Charles Gelinas, Co-Chair of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>. \u201cWith the bold leadership of Governor Phil Murphy, New Jersey is taking a decisive first step to reclaim our classrooms and refocus our schools on learning, growth, and human development. A bell-to-bell mobile device policy is not a cure-all\u2014but it is a clear, principled statement about our priorities: that attention matters, that mental health matters, and that our children deserve environments designed for success, not distraction. We are grateful to Governor Murphy for his courage in leading on this issue, and to all of the bipartisan leadership in Trenton that understands the future of this state is shaped not by screens, but by students who are present, prepared, and empowered to succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cThe New Jersey Principals and Supervisors Association supports thoughtful efforts to minimize learning distractions, increase student engagement, and protect students\u2019 well-being and safety, including from online predators and bullying, in today\u2019s digital environment,\u201d\u00a0said Heather Moran, a member of the\u00a0New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents\u00a0and a\u00a0representative of the\u00a0NJ Principals and Supervisors Association<\/strong>. \u201cWe appreciate that this legislation avoids a one-size-fits-all approach and preserves the flexibility for school leaders and local\u00a0boards of education to adopt policies that best reflect the needs of their students and communities. That local discretion is essential, and we believe it is an important strength of this law.\u201d<\/p>\n“While cell phones can connect young people to family, friends, and knowledge in positive ways, they also provide unlimited access to social media, which has been linked to harmful impacts on youth anxiety, depression, and family dynamics. Banning cellphone use in school is one of many proactive steps New Jersey can take to protect youth mental health, age-appropriate social development, and encourage focus on academic growth,\u201d\u00a0said Ebony Grace, CEO of NJSACC: New Jersey\u2019s Afterschool and Out-of-School Time Professional Network, and member of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>.<\/p>\n“The commission’s year-long process brought together parents, students, educators, and child advocates to examine the research and listen to families and those working with children and youth. What emerged was a clear picture: social media and constant phone access are affecting our children’s mental health, academic performance, and ability to form real connections,\u201d\u00a0said Mary Coogan, Advocates for Children of New Jersey and member of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>. \u201cThis legislation equips schools with the tools they need to create environments where students can focus on learning and connecting face-to-face. We all can play a role in protecting children’s well-being in the digital age and it’s time to fully embrace our shared responsibility to support the healthy development of New Jersey’s children.”<\/p>\n\u201cThe New Jersey legislature’s work and Governor Murphy’s action limiting cell phones in schools reflects what primary care physicians like me and educators are seeing nationwide: when phones are put away, students are more engaged, more present, and better able to learn and connect with one another. While some are understandably hesitant at first, kids adapt quickly\u2014and many end up appreciating the space to focus without the constant distractions. It\u2019s a thoughtful, student-centered approach, and one more states should seriously consider,\u201d\u00a0said Dr. Mike Varshavski, member of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>. \u201cI was proud to serve on the Governor\u2019s Commission that helped study this issue and made the recommendation. I thank everyone else who played their part, including parents. I know students will be happier, healthier, and learn better because of this law.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n“Though I understand that losing our phones during school is difficult, the evidence shows that this can do a lot of good for kids,\u201d\u00a0said Charlotte Valvanis, student member of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>. \u201cI’m excited to see how mental health and academic\u00a0performance\u00a0can improve in New Jersey as a result of this new law.”\u00a0<\/p>\n“I hope this bill encourages a shift in the school environment away from social media and toward meaningful human connection,\u201d\u00a0said Anjali Soni, student member of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>.<\/p>\n“I wholeheartedly commend Governor Murphy and the New Jersey Legislature for this bold bell-to-bell cell phone ban in schools,\u201d\u00a0said Dorota Mani, educator and member of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>. \u201cThis transformative legislation strikes at the heart of the adolescent mental health crisis, slashing distractions from social media, curbing cyberbullying, and restoring focus to empower our students for success and well-being.”<\/p>\n\u201cAs a member of the Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents and representative of the New Jersey State School Nurses Association, I applaud this legislation as a critical step to protect students from the harms of unchecked social media and smartphone use,\u201d\u00a0said Robin Cogan, MEd, RN, NCSN, FNASN, FAAN, school nurse and Member of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>. \u201cSchool nurses are on the front lines of this crisis, and this law gives New Jersey a powerful framework to create healthier, safer, more focused learning environments.\u00a0<\/p>\n“The signing of the Distraction Free Schools Bill is a significant step forward for New Jersey students. As members of the Commission on the Effects of Social Media, we recommended bell-to-bell cell phone bans because the evidence was clear: constant device access interferes with learning and contributes to youth mental health struggles,\u201d\u00a0said Chanta Jackson, member of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>. \u201cIt’s gratifying to see our work translate into action so quickly. This law enables students to engage fully in their education without the constant pull of social media. We hope our other recommendations will be similarly implemented to create healthier environments for New Jersey’s children.”<\/p>\n“Schools are increasingly seeing the effects of cell phone use on students\u2019 attention, social relationships, and mental health,\u201d\u00a0said Kristine Esposito, Ed.S., NCSP, School Psychologist and member of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>. \u201cAs a school psychologist and member of the Social Media Commission, I strongly support this legislation as a critical step toward safeguarding student well-being, strengthening focus and connection, and creating healthier boundaries around technology during the school day.”<\/p>\n“We are well aware of the daily distraction and challenges cellphones cause each day for students in our schools,\u201d\u00a0said Scott Rocco, member of the New Jersey Commission on the Effects of Social Media Usage on Adolescents<\/strong>. \u201cThe new bell-to-bell law prohibiting cellphones in schools, signed by Governor Murphy, will help our students fully engage in school and focus on the learning process in the classroom without the distraction of a cellphone. It will also strengthen their interpersonal connections and social skills through interacting with their peers, not a cellphone.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Policy Will Become Effective Beginning in the 2026-2027 School Year \u00a0 RAMSEY\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Governor Phil Murphy today visited Ramsey High…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":83740,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[4503,3153,51,12356,2934,52767,635,50,15747,225481,3060,290,52],"class_list":{"0":"post-502780","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-bills","9":"tag-governor","10":"tag-headlines","11":"tag-jersey","12":"tag-legislation","13":"tag-murphy","14":"tag-new","15":"tag-news","16":"tag-nj","17":"tag-phone-free","18":"tag-schools","19":"tag-state","20":"tag-top-stories"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115862911533412455","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/502780","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=502780"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/502780\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/83740"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=502780"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=502780"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=502780"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
