US to End Daylight Saving Time on November 1, 2026; Senate Stalls Permanent Change
On November 1, 2026, most of the United States will end daylight saving time by setting clocks back one hour at 2 a.m. local time, returning to standard time. The Sunshine Protection Act, which would make daylight saving time permanent and eliminate the biannual clock changes, has passed the House but remains stalled in the Senate. President Donald Trump has urged Congress to approve the bill, but concerns about darker winter mornings have delayed progress. Hawaii and most of Arizona do not observe daylight saving time.
