Trump urges congress to end daylight saving time changes

U.S. president donald trump has once again called on congress to abolish the practice of changing clocks twice a year.
he argued that the transition between standard time and daylight saving time is not only inconvenient and outdated, but also results in unnecessary economic costs and public confusion.

Trump emphasized the benefit of having more daylight hours in the evening, suggesting it could improve productivity, public health, and quality of life.
he posted on social media that it's time to "make daylight saving time permanent" and stop disrupting people’s schedules twice a year.

Although trump voiced support for the idea last year, he acknowledged in march that some parents and officials are concerned about children going to school in darkness during winter mornings if daylight saving time becomes permanent.

Despite bipartisan support for the change in previous years, legislative efforts in congress have stalled, partly due to disagreements over whether to adopt standard time or daylight saving time year-round.
the debate reflects broader concerns about health effects, energy savings, and public preference—topics that continue to divide both experts and lawmakers.
