In May, the House Energy and Commerce Committee ‌voted 48-1 in favor of the Sunshine Protection Act. The U.S. Senate voted unanimously in March 2022 to make daylight saving time permanent but the House never took up the measure in the face ​of opposition. The proposal the House will consider next week would allow states ​to opt out.

    As someone who works too damn early, please let’s be sensible and do permanent standard time.

    I’m sorry Canada, you’re usually right, but you’re wrong about this

      To be fair, Saskatchewan of all places actually did it right. BC surprised me. Alberta makes perfect sense with Marlena at the helm.

      We are further north. I went daylight time because it leaves more daylight after work.

        Even here in the Midwest I feel the same. I’d rather have the sunlight during my time, not while I’m at work.
