Senate Considers Legislation to End Biannual Clock Changes

The U.S. Senate is currently deliberating legislation that would potentially eliminate the practice of changing clocks twice a year for daylight saving time. This federal-level discussion reflects a growing national consensus over the past 25 years that the biannual time changes may no longer serve their intended purpose. The Senate's consideration of this issue could affect timekeeping practices across most of the country, with potential exceptions for states like Arizona that already maintain a consistent time standard throughout the year.
