US House passes bipartisan bill to make daylight saving time permanent

The U.S. House passed the Sunshine Protection Act with bipartisan support, making daylight saving time permanent nationwide. The bill, introduced by Republican Rep. Vern Buchanan, passed 308-117 and would eliminate biannual clock changes, though its Senate prospects remain uncertain. States not observing daylight saving time, like Hawaii and Arizona, could opt to remain on standard time.
