US House passes bipartisan bill to make daylight saving time permanent

The U.S. House has taken a significant step toward ending the twice-yearly switch between standard and daylight saving time, voting 308-117 to make daylight saving time permanent nationwide. This bipartisan move, known as the Sunshine Protection Act, could end the long-debated practice of changing clocks in the spring and fall. While the bill's future in the Senate remains uncertain, its passage in the House signals a growing consensus to simplify the annual ritual. This shift could have broader implications for public health, energy usage, and daily routines.
