Summary
The U.S. House is poised to vote on making daylight saving time permanent — no more springing forward or falling back. Backed by the Sunshine Protection Act, proponents argue it’ll reduce sleep disruption, cut accidents, and extend evening daylight. But critics warn of darker winter mornings, especially for kids and commuters, and note that states like Hawaii and Arizona already opt out. While the Senate passed a similar bill in 2022, this time it’s hitting a new hurdle — the House vote isn’t guaranteed. With roots dating back to World War I, this could be the biggest shift in the patchwork system since 1966. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
