@SaveStandard Door number 3 is a Win-Win; let people use daylight to wake up or play after work. without shifting 'noon' by government decree. Keep Standard Time and rethink the workday to let daylight saving time "fans" have the benefit of after work sunlight.

Daylight Saving Time is too fast. Standard Time is the compromise of perfection and practicality. Stop the “Sunshine Protection Act”!

@WGNNews Door number 3 is a Win-Win; let people use daylight to wake up or play after work. without shifting 'noon' by government decree.

President Trump is among those who have long supported locking the clocks on daylight saving time, which we currently observe from March to November. Full story: wgntv.com/news/as-trump-…

@LetsGoGifs 😀Since Daylight Saving Time is so great, the government should adjust the gravitational constant to save jet fuel.😀

No More daylight savings time changes

@WTNH Door number 3 is a Win-Win; let people use daylight to wake up or play after work. without shifting 'noon' by government decree.

It’s only May, but some lawmakers are already thinking about changing our clocks back in November. If Congress acts quickly enough on a bill praised by President Trump, the clocks may not change at all. wtnh.com/news/national/…

The momentum to finally “ditch the switch” is growing. Last week, the House Energy and Commerce Committee advanced my provision to make Daylight Saving Time permanent year-round, moving this commonsense reform one step closer to becoming law. Americans are tired of the disruptive and outdated twice-yearly clock change, and it’s time Congress acts. Permanent Daylight Saving Time would provide brighter evenings, promote outdoor activity, support local businesses and tourism, and help families avoid the unnecessary disruption caused by changing the clocks twice every year. Floridians have led the charge on this issue for years, and I’m proud to continue fighting to end the biannual clock change once and for all. msn.com/en-us/news/pol…

@Arkypatriot We are in the 21st century; A reasonable solution is to find ways that would enable people to use their daylight more effectively without moving when noon “is." Finding ways to get employers to set up staggered work schedules.

People are not getting this. In January, most of the country gets roughly 9–10 hours of daylight no matter what we call the clock. Example: STANDARD TIME: ☀️ Sunrise: ~7:15 AM 🌅 Sunset: ~5:00 PM PERMANENT DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME: ☀️ Sunrise: ~8:15 AM 🌅 Sunset: ~6:00 PM That is the SAME amount of daylight. You did not gain sunlight. You just moved the clock one hour later and created darker mornings in winter. The sun doesn’t change. The clock does

Once again, there are talks about making daylight saving time permanent. Here is what it would look like in Indianapolis for the summer solstice (unchanged) and winter solstice (no fall back):

Bringing this up on the radio today - the debate over Daylight Savings Time (DST) vs Standard Time vs do nothing. What do you think? Vote and comment!

If we were on Permanent Standard Time, would you be willing to start work at 7:00 AM so you can go home at 3:30PM? @SaveStandard

@MrEncouragement @JustinWilmethAZ Evening Light Preference : "In the evening, would you prefer for it to get dark earlier or later?" IMHO is "lead the outcome." summer solstice vs winter solstice

@pre1926smiley @JustinWilmethAZ Polls are meant to be unbiased. There’s a lot of effort put into not leading the outcome. You’re trying to lead the outcome. It’s not even honest, because it’s not 7:00am.

Going to Permanent Daylight Saving Time would be unwise. It was tried in the 70s already. Pointless to do again. Railroad companies brought America its current four mainland time zones in the 1880s as a way to standardize arrival times for trains. In 1918, the Standard Time Act fully enshrined that system into law. And, in 1966, Congress passed the Uniform Time Act. Arizona opted out of the UTA in 1968 because, uh, NO ONE HERE WANTED THE SUN UP IN JUNE AT 8:42pm! Without my Legislative ancestors opting out of Saving Time way back when, we’d still have the sun up at 8pm in late June in Phoenix and it wouldn’t be entirely dark here until 9:13pm. I love not changing my clocks ever. One of the many amazing things about why I love it here. All that said - ditch Saving Time completely and #StandardizeStandard @SaveStandard

@MrEncouragement @JustinWilmethAZ wrong question Evening Light Preference : "In the evening, would you prefer for it to get dark earlier or later?" d3nkl3psvxxpe9.cloudfront.net/documents/Dayl… Better question: If we were on Permanent Standard Time, would you be willing to start work at 7:00 AM so you can go home at 3:30PM?

@pre1926smiley @JustinWilmethAZ Yeah, well the links to the polls are there in my graphics. Please show us which is confusing and why.

@MrEncouragement @JustinWilmethAZ One of the polls come down to the wording. With Daylight Savings Time the government moves high noon and tells everyone they were "given" an hour of sunlight in the afternoon... Time the 7-hour workday.

Here are four polls, three of which prefer Daylight Savings Time, only one of which prefers standard. It’s what the people want. In more northern climates, people go to work in the dark and return home in the dark during winter. Daylight savings gives the the ability to see the sun, to have family time outdoors, to get needed light to minimize seasonal affective disorder.

It’s imperative that we revert to STANDARD, not Daylight time, for two reasons, one of which you may have never considered. You know the first: solar noon is closest to 12 o’clock all year. That means an equal number of hours before and after noon each day. This also means earlier sunrises which are significantly better for establishing a healthy circadian rhythm. The second reason is that nearly ONE THIRD of US counties are in the wrong timezone. A significant swath of the country isn’t only an artificial hour ahead because of daylight time… but TWO HOURS ahead of true solar time. Year-round daylight time, especially without recalibrating time zones, would establish this error permanently, affecting millions of Americans. We should be letting the Sun dictate the day the way God made it. Arbitrary, artificial tampering would be worse for us all. Fix the time zones and affix standard time.

@Summertc6 NO--We are in the 21st century; A reasonable solution is to find ways that would enable people to use their daylight more effectively without moving when noon “is." Finding ways to get employers to set up staggered work schedules.

Trump wants to make daylight saving time permanent. Now a bill is heading to the House floor. Are you onboard?

To see what the “Sunshine Protection Act” (permanent “daylight” time) would mean for you, check out this chart: savestandardtime.com/chart/ #DitchDST

The word of the day: vacuity The vacuity of reality television is driving me away from network television.

@NEWSMAX All Daylight Saving Time does make people go to work an hour earlier than before. Many people would protest if they were ordered directly to go to work an hour earlier than before. So they reset the clock, then told everyone they were "given" an hour of sunlight in the afternoon

President Trump celebrated a major House committee vote advancing the Sunshine Protection Act, pledging to push for permanent daylight saving time after years of stalled efforts in Congress. MORE: bit.ly/49aNMOE

Here's why @DennisPrager hates Daylight Savings Time 👇

Should we get rid of Daylight Saving Time?
