The Uniform Time Act of 1966 mandates that the country use daylight saving time, but it allows states to opt out and exempt themselves from the practice of staying on standard time year-round. It does not allow states to permanently establish daylight saving time, which would keep them an hour ahead from November to March while other states switch to standard time.

The Senate passed a bill called the Sunshine Protection Act Marco Rubio R-FL back in 2023. Rick Scott R-FL is introduction Sunshine Protection Act of 2025 to (again) make DST the new permanent Standard Time.
The problem is will the House bother with it this time aroumd (assuming it again passes).
