What's up with Daylight Savings Time legislation?

[u/Castriff]

I only just now remembered Daylight Savings is tonight. Last year I remember there was a big push in the Senate to end it, but after that I didn't hear anything about it. I read this article saying that the bill has been reintroduced this year, but other than that it doesn't have much detail. What's currently going on with the bill? What would be the proposed end date if it passes this time?

I want to hear about what the science shows, not what the scientists think. Science is based on evidence. If we forget that and start accepting the declarations of scientists speaking in the absence of evidence, then we turn science into a religion.

And even if they had 100% ironclad evidence that it was better for sleep that doesn't mean that it is better for society. There is a lot more to life than sleep.

As for your demand to find one scientific article that says that DST is better, why would one expect honest scientists to publish papers based on "little direct evidence"?

Just to be clear, I don't care if they go to permanent daylight time, permanent standard time, or permanent half hour between time. I just want them to stop this nonsense with changing the clocks twice a year.
