That purple Hawaii vacation lei likely came from Thailand, and some lawmakers want to change that

A small but growing movement wants you to put down your phone. But first read this

More than a dozen millennials gathered in a brownstone apartment in Brooklyn and placed their phones in a metal colander before two hours of reading, drawing and conversation — anything but staring at screens.
