Americans might have set their clocks back an hour over the weekend, but there's a proposed
00:03
bill in Congress that could bring a permanent end to changing the clocks. So what would the
00:08
new law do and why hasn't it been passed yet? Brute can explain in less than 60 seconds.
00:12
The Sunshine Protection Act, which would make daylight savings time permanent across the
00:16
country year round, was unanimously passed in the Senate back in March. The bill, however,
00:20
has stalled in the House despite having support from both Republicans and Democrats. If the
00:26
Sunshine Protection Act was passed and approved by Joe Biden, Americans would no longer have to
00:30
change their clocks twice a year and instead the country would abide by daylight savings time all
00:34
year. For context, that means the sun wouldn't rise until 8 30 a.m. some days. Supporters of
00:39
the bill say the change would decrease seasonal depression while increasing economic activity.
00:44
Opponents have cited religious reasons like wanting to do morning prayer reasonable hours
00:48
and concerns over safety in the extra darkness. As of November 7th, there were only 15 days for
00:53
the House to vote on the bill before this Congress closes.
