This is Markey's greatest accomplishment in his 31 year career in the House.* It will affect the lives of every American. Think of that!
Personally, I hate DST. But if one, ONE kid is injured or, God help us, killed crossing the street while walking to school in the dark, his blood will be on Markey's hands.
* Markey's only other accomplishment. He was responsible for the disastrous telecom bill that deregulated cable and raised everyone's rates in the early 90s when he was subcommittee chairman.
So why not start school an hour later.....Solves the problem.
What a guy.
I hadnt considered kids going to school. Here they are already waiting at bus stops in the dark.
