PoliticsPermanent daylight saving time in the US moves closer

The United States has taken another step toward keeping daylight saving time all year. On Tuesday, the House advanced the Sunshine Protection Act by a 308–117 vote. The measure would permanently move clocks one hour forward. President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social in May that the bill would save money. The vote brings the country closer to a permanent change in how it observes daylight saving time.
