“Congressional Failure: Reset Your Clocks….Again”

Bill Bunkley’s “This Is Something to Think About”

Air Date Friday, March 7, 2025

The time has again arrived for us to advance our clocks forward to accommodate the beginning of Daylight-Saving Time. Sunday at 2 am, the official time will spring forward to 3:00 AM. On Sunday morning, November 2, we will reverse the process unless a miracle comes down from Washington, DC.

Congress should have corrected this annual, burdensome routine years ago. Former Florida Senator and now Secretary of State Marco Rubio filed legislation years ago to make Daylight-Saving time permanent, but Congressional leadership would not support it.

We may have renewed hope this year with new leadership in Congress and President Trump at the White House.

I don’t know if Trump would be amenable to an Executive Order making Daylight-Saving time permanent, but it would be a great start.

Maybe this Sunday will be our last time adjusting the clocks.
