Senate passes permanent DST

[HerdandHokies]

A bipartisan bill just passed the Senate which would, if passed by the house, put us on Daylight Savings Time permanently starting Nov 2023. God I hope it passes the house.

The draft law still needs to pass the House.

so it would be daylight longer in the evenings? Let's be sure that congress doesn't **** this up.

Correct. It would stay on the time that it is now, and wouldn’t flip back in the winter. Later sunrises in the winter but daylight when people get home from work.

Damn it, Pelosi and McCarthy better swallow their damn pride and work this thing through or I am going to be pissed. I have waited on this my whole life. This would be some of the biggest bipartisan legislations in decades, maybe ever. I hate that getting dark bull shit at 5pm.

I'd rather see the sun come up here at 9 a.m. in the winter, as long as I can keep it not getting dark until after 10:00 or 10:30 in the summer. My colored friends next door enjoy being out on the porch listening to outlaw country in July and August.

That would depend on your latitude. If you are in So. Cal may be ok, up in Washington maybe not. States should relegate it.

For real. And it passed the Senate unanimously so hopefully nobody feels the need to get their name in the news by blocking it in the house. It’s so dumb.

I do not want to have to reset my damn clock every time I cross state lines. You think Seattle enjoys their 4:18 PM sunsets during the winter?

 

[johns1124]

Only for two weeks after the change. If you don't want to change your clock then move to Arizona, they don't have it.

 

[HerdandHokies]

Or I could just support legislation to get rid of an outdated law that no longer serves any real purpose.

damn, you and I agree. Get rid of that stupid thing and move on with it. Never makes any sense at all.

 

[HerdandHokies]

And by the way, if high latitude states or whoever didn’t want it, their senators probably wouldn’t have unanimously voted for it, right?

 

[herdfan429]

It’s makes sense so there’s NO WAY this happens

Looks like we will still need to change them two more times. It is all about saving, not the savings.

 

[HerdandHokies]

They said they want to delay it because airlines already have their schedules or something.

That's bull shit

 

[HerdandHokies]

That's bull shit

Look if all I’ve got to deal with is 2 more time changes in my life I’ll take it.

 

[herdfan06]

That's bull shit

Then vote those bastards out of office.

Me too but that excuse is bull shit

I've tried but they get more bastards

 

[extragreen]

You voted for them. oath breaker.

This gives them time to change their minds by the time it happens.

Done so in an effort to make it a campaign issue and distract everyone from the other issues.

Whatever party came out against it would be cooked. You might see me in a MAGA hat if the Dems push back against it.

 

[Raoul Duke MU]

THANKS NIXON! 50 fvcking years late, but so be it.

 

[herdfan06]

Maybe the House will pass a similar bill but make standard time permanent.

Followed by Biden signing a law making 7PM the national bedtime.

Matt Walsh cancelled it.

**** that waking up earlier stuff. I need it so i can play more golf at the end of day. Let's be honest.

 

[herdfan429]

I don’t care which one they go with just get rid of the damn time change

 

[i am herdman]

If they go with getting dark at 530, then I am going to turn into like Kate. That shit is depressing. There would be no need to live anymore.

 

[HerdandHokies]

Let’s change it a bit every month so the sun always goes down at 7:30. I don’t care if it doesn’t come up till noon, I’m working that whole time anyway.
