HB 617 -- DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME

SPONSOR: Rogers

This bill establishes the "Daylight Saving as the New Standard Time Pact" consisting of this state and any other state desiring to abstain from observation of daylight saving time. The bill exempts all areas of the state from the federal daylight saving time provisions.

In the year in which at least 20 states have passed legislation entering those states into the pact, each state will switch clocks to daylight saving for the last time and daylight saving time will be eliminated.

This bill is the same as HB 1356 (2020).
