Not so. Arizona has been this way for a long time.

Pretty sure AZ observes standard time, not daylight savings time.

“Not so. Arizona has been this way for a long time.”

As I recall, AZ stays on Standard Time year round. It does create some interesting things though. You can fly from Phoenix to Las Vegas in the Summer and arrive before the time you left because the flight takes less than an hour!

Not true, Arizona stays on standard time year round. California is proposing staying on DST

Except that Arizona is Mountain Standard Time half the year and Mountain Standard Time = Pacific Daylight time the other half.

It sounds like CA wants Pacific Standard Time plus Pacific Standard Time = Yukon Daylight Time. So the CONUS would be in 5 time zones rather than 4 for half the year.

There are no states to the west of CA (apart from AK and HI, so it wouldn’t cause a problem).
