Will Daylight Saving Time Become Permanent? The House Will Vote on a Bill This Week
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
The U.S. House of Representatives is set to vote this week on a bill aimed at making Daylight Saving Time permanent. This follows a push from former President Donald Trump, who advocated for more evening daylight. The Sunshine Protection Act, which passed the House Energy and Commerce Committee with a 48-1 vote in May, seeks to eliminate the biannual clock changes. While the Senate unanimously approved a similar measure in March 2022, it stalled in the House due to opposition. Critics argue that permanent Daylight Saving Time could lead to late sunrises in winter, affecting children's safety on their way to school.
