“Various polls show the public broadly in support of ending the ‘spring forward / fall back’ nonsense, but not necessarily in agreement on whether the standard should be ‘Standard Time’ or ‘Daylight Saving Time.’ I’ve seen good arguments from both sides. My own position is: Pick one and make it happen. For whatever reason, such measures always seem to bog down in Congress. Unable to decide which direction to go in, they always end up punting and putting us through another year of those annoying clock changes. There’s a third way for Congress to go about exercising its Article 1, Section 8 power to ‘fix the standard of weights and measures’ that’s simple and sensible.” (11/10/26)
