Back to EpisodesCalifornia Senator Pushes for Permanent Standard Time
Description
California State Senator Roger Niello introduces a bill for the third time to end the twice-yearly clock changes, proposing permanent standard time. The plan includes a backup for permanent daylight saving time if Congress approves it. Polls show majority support, with over half the country tired of the switches. Health experts agree standard time is best for the body, aligning better with natural sleep cycles. The golf industry opposes it, worried about shorter evenings hurting play and tourism. A father of a nine-year-old daughter, Michael Ernst, who battled severe sleep apnea, supports the bill to help others prioritize better sleep and daily energy.
