White House cell phone ban

The White House has always had a strict no-cell phone policy during their public tours so as to maintain privacy, but that has since been nixed! Taking to Instagram early this morning, the FLOTUS Michelle Obama announced that they are doing away with the ban.

“Big news! Starting today, we’re lifting the ban on cameras and photos on the @WhiteHouse public tour. Visitors are now able to take photos and keep those memories for a lifetime!”

How cool is that? To learn how to schedule a tour with your friends and family, head here.
