Yesterday, the Missouri House Select Committee on General Laws voted \u201cDo Pass\u201d on HJR 38<\/a>.<\/p>\n

HJR 38 proposes to \u201cspring forward\u201d in March 2017 and stay there, effectively going into Year-Round DST. If you’ve followed Time Zone Report at all, you know that Year-Round DST is not permitted<\/a> by federal statutes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The legislation also says \u201cAfter this time, daylight saving time will no longer be recognized as the official time of this state\u201d\u2026 basically stating (paraphrased, my words) \u201cwe are moving the clock forward an hour permanently, but we\u2019re not going to call it Daylight Saving Time\u201d. Those silly state legislators!<\/p>\n

Previously HJR 38 was also voted \u201cDo Pass\u201d<\/a> in the House Government Efficiency Committee on March 19.<\/p>\n
