Trump Supports Permanent Daylight Saving Time Amid Senate Uncertainty

Analysed 10 Aug 2026·2 sources analysed·South Dakota, United States·Politics
Trump Supports Permanent Daylight Saving Time Amid Senate UncertaintyPreviousNext

President Donald Trump supports making daylight saving time permanent in the US to eliminate twice-yearly clock changes. The House has approved the Sunshine Protection Act, but the Senate has yet to vote, with uncertainty about sufficient support before the November 1 clock change. Supporters cite health and safety benefits, while opponents raise concerns about darker winter mornings. Until legislation passes, Americans will continue adjusting clocks biannually.
