US House passes bipartisan bill to make daylight saving time permanent

The U.S. House passed the bipartisan Sunshine Protection Act to make daylight saving time permanent nationwide, with 308-117 votes. The bill, introduced by Republican Rep. Vern Buchanan, aims to eliminate biannual clock changes and is supported by President Donald Trump, though its Senate future remains uncertain. Opponents, including Democratic Rep. Madeleine Dean, argue standard time is healthier for body rhythms.
