President-elect Donald Trump announced on Friday that the Republican Party will use its best efforts to eliminate Daylight Saving Time when he takes office, describing it as 'inconvenient' and 'very costly' to the nation. In a social media post, he emphasized that abolishing the twice-yearly practice of changing clocks would reduce unnecessary financial burdens, and noted that his Department of Government Efficiency directors are also pushing for action on the matter. Trump's call to end the decades-long ritual marks a renewed push against Daylight Saving Time.
