Sunshine Protection Act: Permanent Daylight Saving Time in the US

This act aims to make daylight saving time permanent across the United States, meaning clocks will no longer be adjusted twice a year. For citizens, this means more daylight in the evenings year-round, potentially impacting daily activities and well-being. However, some states may still choose to remain on standard time.
Key points
No more clock changes: Clocks will no longer be adjusted in spring and autumn.
More evening daylight: It will be brighter in the evenings throughout the year, potentially affecting after-work or school plans.
State choice: States that previously opted out of daylight saving time can still choose to remain on standard time.
