DENVER — Year-round daylight saving time could become a reality in Colorado after the Legislature approved the change Tuesday, sending the bill to Gov. Jared Polis for final consideration.
House Bill 1297 would make daylight saving time year round if federal law is changed to allow states to do so and if four other states in the Mountain time zone also make the switch. The bill received bipartisan support in the state House and Senate this month.
“I just want the madness to end. That’s all I want,” said Sen. Jeff Bridges, D-Greenwood Village, who is sponsoring the bill. “I want to lock the clocks, not change them twice a year. Time is time, why are we messing with it?”
