Northern states not fans of “year round DST”....sunrise at 9am in Winter is a bummer for school kids and the AM commute:
Then change the school start time. Up north there are so many daylight hours so school will either start or end in the dark.
We had year round dst in the northeast under Nixon. They changed the primary school start time to 9:30 AM. The problem is the northern part of the country only has 7-8 hours of daylight at the beginning of winter. No matter what you do, you will be coming or going in the dark.
