## Resource

The House just voted to make daylight saving time permanent — no more springing forward or falling back twice a year. The Sunshine Protection Act, backed by lawmakers who say it boosts health, sleep, and the economy, passed with a big majority. But winter mornings may get darker, raising safety and health concerns. The idea’s been tried before — briefly in 1973 — and failed. Now it heads to the Senate, where support is uncertain, even though former President Trump backs it. The clock-changing madness might finally be over — or it might not. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
