If the bills become law, they would end the decades-long practice of setting clocks forward one hour every March and back again in November, and would require a change in federal law.

As January draws to an end, Texas can look forward to daylight saving time as an indication of spring. Here's why President Trump may end it.

"The Republican Party will use its best efforts to eliminate Daylight Saving Time, which has a small but strong constituency, but shouldn’t!" Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social in 2024. "Daylight Saving Time is inconvenient, and very costly to our Nation."

This spring, most of the United States will "spring forward," losing an hour of sleep to gain an hour of daylight.

North Dakota lawmakers in the state House have passed legislation by a vote of 55-37 to end daylight saving time. The legislation still needs to be passed by the Senate and signed by Gov. Kelly Armstrong (R-ND).

North Dakotans would no longer need to change their clocks for daylight saving time under a bill approved Tuesday by House lawmakers. The House voted 55-37 to approve House Bill 1259, which would keep the state on standard time year-round.

House Bill 1259 would eliminate daylight saving time in North Dakota, instead having the state observe standard time year-round.

North Dakota lawmakers passed a bill ending Daylight Saving Time and forcing permanent standard time. The House voted 55 to 37 in favor of sending House Bill 1259 to the Senate. It does not change any time zone lines.
