_ As the annual debate over Daylight Saving Time continues, it’s worth noting that nearly every state is considering ending the practice, but cannot make the switch without a change in federal law. The American Medical Association has called for the end of Daylight Saving Time, citing the negative impact on sleep cycles.
… A study found that close to 70 percent of Americans would prefer to stop changing their clocks twice a year, with 50 percent in favor of permanent Daylight Saving Time. The Sunshine Protection Act of 2021, which would establish permanent Daylight Saving Time, passed the Senate with a unanimous vote and is awaiting a vote in the House.
