End Daylight Savings Time.

Created by K.H. on March 05, 2015

It is time to end the failed experiment that is Daylight Savings Time. Research shows that there is no measurable energy savings from DST, and in fact, in areas that use air conditioning, it actually costs more to implement. Additionally, only 35% of Americans are in favor of it and yet more research shows that it both increases the risk of heart attacks and decreases productivity due to lack of sleep. Ending DST is also a public safety issue, as an estimated 200 people a year lose their lives in collisions due to fatigued drivers trying to adjust to an abrupt change to driving in the darkness. Please consider our request to end Daylight Savings Time.
