Permanent Daylight Saving Time: No More Clock Changes in US

This bill aims to make daylight saving time permanent across the United States. This means clocks will no longer be adjusted twice a year, potentially impacting daily schedules and evening daylight hours. However, some states may retain the option to choose their own standard time.
Key points
No more clock changes: Daylight saving time will be year-round, eliminating the need to adjust clocks in spring and fall.
More evening daylight: Evenings will be longer, which may affect after-work and school activities.
State option to choose: Some states may opt to maintain their current standard time, potentially leading to time zone differences between neighboring regions.
