States could keep clocks on daylight time

This bill would let any state pass a law to keep daylight saving time all year. If your state chooses this, clocks would stay one hour ahead year-round, with no spring or fall changes. A state could apply the rule statewide or to areas in each time zone. If enacted, this could shift morning and evening light and affect school, work, and sleep.
