Now ten <\/strong>states have active<\/strong> legislation pending regarding Daylight Saving Time, with four additional<\/strong> states where legislation has been killed in committee\u00a0or dropped.\u00a0 See the “Status By State – 2015” menu for the list of states, and click on a state to see up-to-date information about that state’s legislation.<\/p>\n

Fifteen states had legislation from 2010 to 2014… all of which failed.\u00a0 See the “Bills in 2010-2014” under the “More Info” menu for information about those states.<\/p>\n

Some states are looking at ways to go to year-round DST, and while the current US time zone regulations do not allow for this option, we believe there are ways to accomplish this within the scope of current law.\u00a0 See our thoughts here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We have completed the transition from\u00a0the “Stop Daylight Saving Time” web site to the “Time Zone Report” URL, to provide a more balanced view of US time zone legislation.<\/p>\n

We still support states that are considering legislation to abandon Daylight Saving Time transitions<\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0Research from well-respected organizations overwhelmingly shows that\u00a0DST transitions<\/span> kill people<\/span>!<\/p>\n
