119-HR-139 — Sunshine Protection Act of 2025

This bill aims to make daylight savings time permanent across the United States. To do this, the bill repeals the temporary period for daylight savings time found in the Uniform Time Act of 1966. It also advances standard time by changing the hour differences listed in the Calder Act. Additionally, the bill allows certain states and areas that previously exempted themselves to choose their standard time. The bill was passed by the House of Representatives and referred to the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation.
