## Resource

The House is set to vote on making daylight saving time permanent — no more springing forward or falling back twice a year. The bipartisan-backed Sunshine Protection Act, backed by former President Trump, could finally end the annual time-shifting headache. While 19 states have already passed their own resolutions to stay on daylight saving time, federal law still holds the ultimate power — and Congress is the only body that can make it official. Arizona and Hawaii remain the only states exempt, sticking to standard time year-round. The vote next week could be the tipping point for a nationwide time change.
