It's an over complication that we don't need. Just pick one and stay with it. Simple is better.

Tell that to the sun

Pretty much dead in the senate is the rumours.

I’m just going to show up an hour late to work for half the year and do my own time.

ya that’d be a horrible change

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

Good

Why though? I mean personally with me I’d like it to not be dark at 5pm during winter, but maybe there’s a reason some don’t want the change?

People are so soft that they can't even handle a 1 hour time change twice a year.

Ur mom handles it for an hour....

Because in exchange to get the 6pm sunset instead of the 5pm sunset you don't want, you'd get 8:45am sunrises in December-January.

Passed the house and now just waiting on senate. Close to a done deal.

Tell me you don't know how Washington works without telling me you don't know.

I’ve stated why in previous posts.

Because who gives a **** about an extra hour of daylight in January when it’s already cold, versus the sun literally rising until close to 9am. Millions of kids (elementary all the way through college) waiting for busses in darkness.

Earth's tilted axis + elliptical orbit around sun

Compromise: change it by 30 minutes and call it good.

Wish the folks in Washington would put as much priority on the farm bill as they have on Daylight "Savings" Time.

Well now… just send the bill back to the house and have them change the language so that an extra hour of daylight is added. There fixed it!
