House passes bill that could end changing clocks twice a year in your state

The House of Representatives has voted on a bill that could leave states to decide what time it is.

The U.S. House passed the Sunshine Protection Act of 2025 Tuesday in a 308 to 117 vote. The bill has the support of President Donald Trump and would call for year-round daylight saving time. Daylight saving time kicks in during the spring, when people “spring forward” and move the clocks ahead an hour. It ends in the fall with “fall back.” Right now, Hawaii and Arizona are the only states that don’t participate in daylight saving time.
