BREAKING: Congress moves to make Daylight Saving Time permanent

NO! Permanent DST is a deadly failure, and would delay sunrises as late as 9am during this time of year. Health, safety, economy need Standard Time’s morning light!

Figures.

They will literally do anything but stop illegal voting

Why don't we make Standard Time, I don't know, the standard?

@Freedommonarch No this is backwards Standard time is natural time aligned with the circadian rhythm

We've been promised a fix every year and it never happens

Horrible. It’s been tried before and found to be bad. Kids getting on school buses in the dark. Eliminate daylight saving time permanently.

It’s about time

I don't care if we're on Standard Time, or Daylight Savings Time, or Howdy Doody Time. Just pick one and stick with it!

Standard time all the time Make solar noon all year long Kill Daylight Stupid Time

Can we just get this across the finish line. We need a win

Everyone hates it being dark outside by 4pm

I’ve fallen for this every single year. Not again

But they’ve picked rhe wrong one.

Finally, a sensible change we can all support!

Why can't we just stay on Standard and leave it at that? Why is this so difficult?

So do I need to set my clock back or ahead permanently? Directions unclear

Finally permanent sunshine sounds amazing now

Don't hate the idea but how about focusing on more important things like secure voting laws

Most people prefer real time aka STANDARD TIME. This is why it is going nowhere, they forget we tried this before and it sucked.

Move daylight saving time by 30 minutes one time, then stop changing clocks altogether. Lock in a balanced schedule permanently so we get daylight benefits without the twice-yearly disruption, sleep loss, and confusion caused by clock changes.

DST is the wrong clock to make permanent. Demand permanent Standard Time instead!

Daylight savings time is the stupidest idea. There are 24 hrs in the day no matter what you call them.

If we must choose one, Standard Time is the much better choice. Noon is Sun as apex. Which is why it's called Standard Time. Some places are too far east or west, and probably should shift zones. But otherwise by far the best option.

No, standard time should be permanent!!!!

The better option is standard time. We've done daylight savings time in the past and it failed MISERABLY. Study the past and learn from it do not get stuck making the same mistakes.

Will history repeat itself We did this before with with bad outcomes

Leave REAL standard time alone. No more taking anything anymore. It's MY hour. Don't touch my hour. Ignore any springing forward. Let's just stay right where we are.

YES

Great idea. But if congress passes anything, maybe we should start with better voter laws 🤷🏻‍♂️

Isn’t there other issues that should be prioritized?

Meanwhile, the Save Act still hasn’t been passed. Priorities.

why doesn't Congress take on some REAL issues? The reckless spending and SAVE act and ending the filibuster is what we should be working on. Even after @DOGE found so much fraud, you are still SNEAKING it in with backroom deals. We are OVER IT! @LeaderJohnThune @SpeakerJohnson
