Question:

What enforcement mechanism exists?

Seriously, I don’t get it.

If (let’s say) Arkansas votes to run on the time zone of Tashkent, what can anyone do about it besides shouting “that’s (subjectively) stupid, and you ought not do it”?

If a business says, we use solar time, how can a state enforce their clocks?

If Congress is the roadblock here, the Texas legislature would do well to simply impose a one-hour change in its government office operating hours for Daylight Saving Time.

If official time “moves forward” one hour on the first day of DST every year, then Texas should adjust its government functions back one hour at the same time. Open government offices from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM instead of 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, for example.

I’m surprised more people don’t do this on their own. I try to coordinate my own schedule based on the rising of the sun, regardless of what time it is.
