I hate Daylight Savings Time.

Me too.

Here in Florida it is totally unnecessary.

That’s why we are trying to get off of it but Congress won’t let us................

...and the cockpit door locked, both asleep. While they are busy blaming or excusing the pilots for this, what about the plane—oxygen to the cockpit, etc. Both falling asleep, waking, then going back to sleep. There is likely more to this story.

We’re not an agrarian society walking behind plows.
DST needs to end.
Didn’t the House pass something last year?

The phrasing is new to me

I would call it “wake ups” but maybe I’m wrong. LOL

Maybe it’s like “attorneys general” which I believe is correct.

So what's to stop all of our local (state, on down) also refusing to honor DST? If we make this happen from the ground up, Congress will be far more likely to enshrine it in Federal law. I might just attend a few county board meetings where I live.

In our case, it’s spite.

Governor DeSantis and Matt Gaetz support the legislation, as do other (R) but the (D) won’t vote for it..................

Saskatchewan too. The entire province doesn’t have DST. And they’re as agrarian as it gets in the contemporary West.
