Daylight saving time ends this Sunday, at 2 a.m., when clocks are set back an hour. Senator Marco Rubio wants to change this reality so that we remain on daylight saving time throughout the year. This would remove the need to adjust clocks back or forward by an hour.<\/p>\n

From Newsmax:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

We’re about to once again do this annual craziness of changing the clock, falling back, springing forward,” he said. “The overwhelming majority of members of Congress approve and support [ending this]. Let’s get it done. Let’s get it passed, so that we never have to do this stupid change again.”<\/p>\n

Proponents of making daylight saving time permanent argue it betters the health and safety of the nation by saving energy, preventing traffic accidents, and curbing crime.<\/p>\n

Jim Reed of the National Conference of State Legislatures told USA Today that six states enacted measures to make daylight saving time year-round during this year’s legislative session, meaning no clock changes.<\/p>\n

Currently, states can opt out of participating in daylight saving time. However, it requires a change to federal law.<\/p>\n

According to the 1966 Uniform Time Act, states must change the clocks to daylight saving time at a specified time and day or follow standard time throughout the year.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
