The House voted 308–117 in favor of a bill that would end the twice-yearly clock change and make daylight saving time permanent across most of the country. President Donald Trump has backed the measure, writing on Truth Social that the change would provide longer, brighter days. The legislation, known as the Sunshine Protection Act, still needs Senate approval. Medical groups oppose permanent daylight saving time, saying it conflicts with natural sleep rhythms, and some Midwestern lawmakers warn it would push winter sunrises past 9 a.m. in central states. The bill would allow states to remain on year-round standard time if they opt out before the law takes effect.
