Daylight Saving Bill Hits Wall in Senate

“Legislation making daylight saving time permanent will face turbulence in the Senate after sailing through the House,” Semafor reports.

“Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) has previously opposed the bill, citing potential harms to schoolchildren commuting in the dark and people working outdoors in the early morning without sunlight. He ‘has the same concerns he’s had for years about this proposal,’ according to a senior GOP aide.”

“A bipartisan bloc of senators opposed similar legislation in the Commerce Committee.”
