Trump urges Congress to make daylight saving time permanent
Original: Trump urges Congress to pass daylight saving bill after ‘ridiculous’ early sunset
Donald Trump has called on Congress to pass a bill ending the biannual clock changes after criticizing the early winter sunsets as 'ridiculous.' The appeal revives a long-running debate in the United States over whether the country should adopt permanent daylight saving time or permanent standard time, an issue lawmakers have repeatedly considered without reaching agreement.
Why now: The early winter sunsets have reignited public and political debate over ending the twice-yearly clock changes.
