Americans will lose an hour of sleep when daylight saving time begins on Sunday, March 9, 2025. There have been recent bills introduced to make daylight saving time the national year-round standard, but they have not made significant progress in Congress. President Donald Trump has expressed interest in eliminating daylight saving time, but has not taken any action on the issue since returning to office for his second term in January. Daylight saving time, which begins on March 9 and ends on November 2, involves adjusting clocks ahead by one hour to provide more daylight in the evenings during the summer months. Hawaii and most of Arizona do not observe daylight saving time due to their specific climate conditions. The Standard Time Act of 1918 was the first federal law to implement standard and daylight saving time. The Department of Transportation oversees the observance of daylight saving time and U.S. time zones, citing energy reduction and reduced crime as reasons for having both standard and daylight saving time. While there have been discussions about ending daylight saving time and making it the year-round standard, no significant actions have been taken at the federal level to do so.
