Daylight Saving Time Goes Permanent | Global News
Description
The House just voted to make daylight saving time permanent — a major shift that could mean no more clock changes twice a year. With 308 votes to 117, supporters tout the benefits: more evening daylight for families and tourism-heavy states like Florida. But it’s not set in stone — the Senate still needs to approve it, and some states might opt out. The White House backs the move, calling it common sense. Critics, however, warn of darker, riskier winter mornings — school buses in the dark, early commutes in the cold. This isn’t the first time the idea has surfaced — a similar bill passed the Senate before, but stalled in the House. The debate continues, and the final outcome remains uncertain.
