House Votes to Lock the Clock - for Good

JUST IN: House Passes Trump-Backed Bill to Make Daylight Savings Permanent * The Gateway Pundit * by Cristina Laila

The House Finally Sees the Light on Daylight Saving Time

Summary

A neutral summary of the key facts most outlets agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

The House voted 308-117 Tuesday to pass the Sunshine Protection Act, which would make daylight saving time permanent nationwide and end the twice-yearly clock changes. The bill would keep clocks on the time now observed from March to November, while allowing states to remain on standard time if they have an exemption or opt out before the law takes effect. The measure now goes to the Senate and would need approval there before reaching the president. President Donald Trump supports the change.
