Time change 2025: "Spring forward" Sunday with return to daylight saving time (DST)
Briefly

President Trump expressed ambivalence toward changing daylight saving time, calling it a '50-50 issue.' Meanwhile, the Sunshine Protection Act, reintroduced by Sen. Rick Scott, aims to make daylight saving time permanent. Research indicates that the one-hour time change leads to significant health risks, including increased workplace and road accidents due to sleep deprivation. The debate continues, as polls reveal that a majority of Americans favor standard time year-round, indicating widespread discontent with the current practice of clock changes.
The friction point of daylight saving time isn't just a mere loss of sleep; it leads to a spike in accidents, medical errors, and cognitive impairment as reported by experts.
Polls indicate a significant portion of the population—54%—prefer sticking to standard time year-round, reflecting frustrations with the biannual clock changes.
