I like permanent DST. Being in the PNW, it gets mighty dark. I would rather have darkness in the AM and a little more light in the PM.

I’m in southern AZ and I prefer permanent standard time. I get up by 4 am anyway, so in the summer I’d rather have more light in the morning and then have the sun just go the hell away earlier in the evening. And even in the winter it’s light enough to get around outdoors by 7 am or so.

There’s a lot of difference across the U.S. concerning day length in the various seasons and concerning climate too. What works well in one region might not be good at all in another. The matter of DST should be left to the individual states, not the federal government.
