The state has a law to eliminate DST bullshite after the fricking feds clear the way. We should, I say we should pressure on our elected offals to get the right shite done or slide out.


The opposite is true as to what to make permanent.

Bill signed by John Bel in 2020 makes Daylight Saving Time permanent contingent upon Federal approval.

20 states are on board to make change.

Last time it was raised in congress , it made it through the senate but not the house.

Rush hour traffic after work is usually a lot better with DST time + I have time when I get home to do basic things around the house outside and play some pickleball. DST is a win win.

They did this in the 70s and people hated it so they changed it back. Obviously this is dependent on location, but with permanent DST there will be places in the country where it is dark until after 9am at times of the year.

Arizona doesn't participate in this silliness but they have permanent standard time, not DST.
