Tag: Daylight Savings Time

The House of Representatives passed the "Sunshine Protection Act" with a 308-117 vote, making daylight saving time permanent in the U.S. Supporters advocate for increased evening daylight, while critics warn of dark winter mornings. The bill now awaits Senate discussion before potentially reaching the president. Public opinion generally favors the change.

Kansas legislator Kenny Titus has filed a bill to eliminate daylight saving time, proposing year-round standard time starting November 2025. Citing constituent demand for consistency, Titus emphasizes the health benefits of standard time over increased consumer spending associated with daylight saving. Past efforts to abolish the clock changes have failed.
