TURN BACK THE CLOCKS - There have been rumors circulating among the public and on social media that we won't fall back in November because a bill was passed that ended clock changes.
There have been rumors circulating among the public and on social media that we won't fall back in November because a bill was passed that ended clock changes.
Why is the confusion? The U.S. Senate passed a bill in March 2022 called the Sunshine Protection Act of 2021. The bill would abolish clock changes and keep daylight saving time permanently. Even if that were to happen in the next couple of weeks, it would not become law until next year, Nov. 5, 2023. So, we'd still move our clocks forward in March 2023 and then wouldn't change them again.Every March, we turn the clocks forward an hour. So, what would happen if we kept daylight saving time all year? Several things.
In January though, the sun wouldn't rise until between 8 and 9 a.m. in most portions of the U.S. That means kids standing in the dark at bus stops, and the volume of traffic is much higher after dark.
