Senate Approves Bill To Make Daylight Saving Time Permanent

The US Senate has unanimously approved a measure to make daylight saving time permanent, allowing more evening sunlight. The proposal requires states to choose between year-round standard time or daylight saving time, without switching between the two. Sponsored by Senator Marco Rubio, the Sunshine Protection Act awaits approval from the House. If passed, it would eliminate the need for biannual time changes. The Act could take effect next fall, aiming to protect daylight and improve public well-being.
