Abolish Daylight Saving Time throughout the USA.

Created by N.J. on March 07, 2015

We desire that the US government abolish the practice of shifting clocks by an hour twice a year. Known as daylight saving time, the change in clock times disrupts sleep cycles and Circadian rhythms, leading to a decrease in productivity and mental health for an extended period of time after the shifts. Studies about the energy savings of daylight saving time are contradictory and ignore the rise of the 24-hour store, internet commerce, and more efficient appliances and vehicles. Daylight saving time continues to be supported politically mostly due to entrenched business interests that desire an extra hour of sunlight after the end of the typical working day of 5 PM. Instead of shifting clocks twice a year, please pick either the forward or back hour and stick with it for the entire US.
