Daylight Saving Time Could Become Permanent | Dover News

Daylight saving time might be here to stay — the House just passed a bill to make it permanent, eliminating twice-yearly clock changes. But don’t get too excited: the Senate still needs to approve it, and not everyone’s on board. Northern and western states worry about brutal winter mornings, with the sun rising as late as 9:30 AM. Plus, states can already opt out — but only to stay on standard time, not daylight. Hawaii and Arizona already do this for good reasons: Arizona to dodge sweltering evenings, Hawaii because daylight barely shifts. So while Congress debates nationwide change, local control already exists — and it’s messy, depending on where you live.
