Trump Seeks to End 'Costly' Daylight Saving Time, Make Standard Time Permanent
Dec 13, 2024, 10:30 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has announced on his social media platform, Truth Social, plans to end Daylight Saving Time in the United States, calling the practice "inconvenient and very costly to our nation." The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) directors are also pushing for action on the matter. Trump stated that the Republican Party would work towards abolishing the decades-long ritual of changing clocks twice a year, effectively making Standard Time permanent. He criticized Daylight Saving Time for imposing an unnecessary financial burden and causing inconvenience to Americans. Trump's announcement has renewed discussions on the longstanding debate over the necessity of the time-changing practice.
