Trump wrote. 'Daylight Saving Time is inconvenient, and very costly to our Nation.
Perhaps the most well-known effort was put forth by Republican Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, who introduced a bill known as the Sunshine Protection Act in 2018.Rubio, who Trump has nominated to serve as secretary of state for his second administration, proposed in the bill to make daylight saving time permanent. The bill was unanimously approved by the Senate in 2022 but didn't clear the House. Rubio reintroduced the measure last year.
