Trump calls for ending Daylight Saving Time
"The Republican Party will use its best efforts to eliminate Daylight Saving Time, which has a small but strong constituency, but shouldn’t! Daylight Saving Time is inconvenient, and very costly to our Nation," Trump posted.
President-elect Donald Trump on Friday vowed Friday that the Republican Party would work to end Daylight Saving Time.
"The Republican Party will use its best efforts to eliminate Daylight Saving Time, which has a small but strong constituency, but shouldn’t! Daylight Saving Time is inconvenient, and very costly to our Nation," Trump posted on Truth Social.
The Senate, in March 2022, passed legislation to making Daylight Saving Time permanent, though it did not become law.
"I think the majority of the American people's preference is just to stop the back and forth changing... but beyond that, I think their preference is, certainly based on today's vote and what we heard certainly is to make daylight saving time permanent," Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., said at the time.
