This guy went from the Great Latino / Tea Party Hope when he was first elected to a squishy non-entity who introduces Daylight Savings Time bills. How the mighty have fallen.

Keep it on DST all year round.
Many countries no longer switch their clocks twice a year.
We should follow suit.

Foam Boy was faking the tea party stance.
Now that it is known that he supports arming jihadists and amnesty for illegal aliens, there was no excuse for re-electing him.

Fall Back one more time, in 2018, and stay there permanently nationwide.

I like the idea, wonder if the vote will be party line :)

Wouldn’t you know it?!!
Daylight Saving Time = clock
Clocks have hands, small hands.
A lesson for all.
We should have NEVER attempted to tinker with Old Father Time. Take us back, move us forward. We consistently remain in the same place.

Won’t happen, McCain and Rand Paul will fight it, because that’s what they do.

Additionally, New England ought to go onto Atlantic time. It’s kind of silly that Downeast Maine and the UP of Michigan are part of the same time zone.
To: GIdget2004
Oh my gosh finally this guy’s done something worthwhile. I’m all for this as long as it’s a simple bill they don’t add 50 billion dollars worth of spending in the Daylight Saving time bill.
To: Opinionated Blowhard
Well AFAIK it’s the first piece of legislation he’s introduced that I agree with.

I dunno. Up in the northern tier of states, if we weren’t on Daylight Saving Time, the sun would be rising at 4am in the summer. Dealing with an early sunset in the winter is probably easier than an early sunrise in the summer.

I agree. Let's get our hour back that they stole from us.

NO! Go with standard time. Then I don’t have to try to sleep with some ahole mowing his lawn at 2200. I’m on shift at 0600.
