As long as he makes DST permanent and not standard time. Get it done before 11/2, please.

Getting dark at 5 PM during the winter sucks, and studies show it elevates depression and other issues.

quote:

The phenomenon of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is well-documented: many people develop depressive symptoms in fall and winter, when daylight hours shrink.


Mayo Clinic


Remember, Louisiana already voted to end it

quote:

In 2020, Louisiana passed House Bill 132, which would make daylight saving time permanent in the state. But that law only takes effect if federal law changes to allow states to adopt permanent daylight saving time.

It's kinda ironic that for every other organism on the planet sunrise and sunset are of great significance. We are so important that we get to say that doesn't apply to us.

Is the EO to give us more daylight in the winter or the usual dark at 5PM?

More daylight means that weekday golf in the afternoon doesn't have to end in a few weeks!

Daylight savings is why I have daylight afterwork. When they say suspend, do they mean make it permanent? On 11/2/25, we return to standard time and the clocks will fall back an hour and we will lose our afternoons. F-that.

Man getting to the deer stand an hour later in the morning would be glorious especially after a night of heavy drinking

Not how EOs work. This would require an act of Congress.

With modern technology, including combines that drive themselves, tell us all why we need to keep switching time for farmers, which was the original point of DST?

If the goal is more daylight in the afternoon/evening, then it wouldn’t be suspending Daylight Savings Time. It would be suspending Standard Time.

frick that. Quit thinking we can manipulate time. Use standard time.

If you want more daylight at the end of the day, wake up earlier and go home earlier.

Do you think your bosses at the drive-through will let you do that?
