UPDATE: SENATE APPROVES BILL COSPONSORED BY HYDE-SMITH TO MAKE DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME PERMANENT
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-Miss.) is pleased to announce unanimous Senate approval of S.623, the Sunshine Protection Act. Hyde-Smith is an original cosponsor of this legislation to make Daylight Saving Time the new, permanent standard time.
The Senate-passed bill, which still requires House passage and the President’s signature, would delay implementation until Nov. 20, 2023.
In March 2020, Hyde-Smith joined the bill’s author, U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), in authoring an op-ed for Fox News to advocate for passage of the legislation. Read it here: Sens. Marco Rubio and Cindy Hyde-Smith: Congress should ‘see the light,’ make daylight saving time permanent
