“A bipartisan group of senators has tried and failed, for Congress after Congress, to keep America on Daylight Saving Time permanently,” Politico reports.
“Until Tuesday, when their bright idea finally cleared the chamber.”
“The quick and consequential move happened so fast that several senators said afterward they were unaware of what had just happened.”
Washingtonian: The U.S. tried permanent Daylight Saving Time in the 1970s. People hated it.
