House passes bill to make daylight saving time permanent

The House has approved a bill with broad bipartisan backing to make daylight saving time permanent across the country. The 308-117 vote for the Sunshine Protection Act of 2025 suggests a growing consensus that the constant shift between standard and daylight time may be unnecessary. While 22 Republicans and 95 Democrats opposed it, the bill's passage marks a significant step toward potentially ending the seasonal clock changes. This move could simplify scheduling and reduce confusion, though it remains to be seen if it will face similar debates in the Senate.
