Clocking 5 Reasons Why Congress Should Make Daylight Saving Time Permanent
Most Americans are exasperated with changing the clocks twice a year…
We have all heard the famous 17th-century English proverb: “The early bird catches the worm.”
But what was true in prior time periods is not always the case today.
We live in a modern globally interconnected world where time zones are being eviscerated due to high-tech breakthroughs which are changing how people work and spend leisure time.
Employment and HR experts say the remote work trend will only grow going forward due to advances in communication, computing, and digital technology. This includes virtual reality spaces and virtual workplaces in the metaverse.
Americans should not have to agonize every year over changing the clocks to “fall back” in November and “spring forward” in March.
Most Americans will push back the clocks one hour on Sunday, November 3rd at 2:00 a.m. The two exceptions to the 50 states are Arizona and Hawaii which observe standard time all year.
Most U.S. territories likewise follow standard time all year, including Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa and the Northern Mariana Islands.
