States can choose year-round daylight saving time: more daylight.

This bill allows states to permanently adopt daylight saving time, meaning clocks won't change twice a year. If a state chooses this, citizens will experience longer evenings with natural light throughout the year, potentially impacting their daily activities and well-being.
Key points
States gain the option to observe daylight saving time year-round, eliminating the need to set clocks back in the fall.
If a state opts for year-round daylight saving time, citizens will have more daylight in the evenings, potentially affecting their schedules and lifestyle.
A study on the impact of year-round daylight saving time will be conducted within two years of the act's enactment.
