Big Golf is why DST was created, and Big Golf is why DST is so difficult to abolish. Please tell lawmakers to prioritize health over golf, thanks!

The sun should be highest around noon. This shouldn’t be controversial.

DST originated as an early bird's attempt to push night owls into such a pattern. Standard time, by not tilting the clock, gives us a better chance to benefit from morning light and establish a healthy circadian rhythm. www.frontiersin.org/journals/phy...

Standard Time keeps mornings naturally sunlit, for health and safety. Permanent Daylight Saving Time would force us to wake hours before sunrise, to start work/school in cold darkness. Tell lawmakers to ditch DST with permanent Standard Time! 🔗👇

On this day in 1974: Instead of saving energy for the Oil Crisis, permanent Daylight Saving Time wasted millions of barrels of oil, due to increased heating needs on unnaturally darkened mornings. #OTD

Thank you, @repmarcveasey.bsky.social, for noting permanent Daylight Saving Time’s failed and dangerous history! Permanent Standard Time instead would give most Americans a little more time for sleep in the morning. Amend or replace the “Sunshine Protection Act”!

“The sun rose at 8:30am or later… Four Connecticut teenagers were struck on their way to school… In Florida, eight students were fatally struck…” Standard Time is needed for natural morning sunlight!

Why ditch DST? Because its unnaturally darkened mornings and chronic misalignment of circadian rhythms cost hundreds of lives and millions of dollars annually.

Until @savestandard.bsky.social shared this fact, I never knew that the U.S. govt tried to go to perma-DST back in 1974! It failed so bad that they had to REVERSE COURSE a few months later. So many unnecessary deaths because of it. Because of the few who SELFISHLY want light at 10pm during summer.🤦

That’s a common misunderstanding, but it’s actually Daylight Saving Time that unnaturally delays sunrise. American states observe Standard Time either permanently (as in Arizona) or during winter only (as in most other states). Permanent DST is what would push sunrise past 8am for several months.

“Academic literature suggests permanent Standard Time would be more beneficial to the agricultural industry than permanent Daylight Saving Time.” —Tyler Kleppe PhD CPA to Congress on November 20.

The phenomenon is natural: Earliest sunsets come in early December each year (latest sunrises come in early January, putting the shortest day halfway between, on December 21). 👉 It’s another example of why Daylight Saving Time is unnecessary!

History proves it, science confirms it: Permanent DST fails when tried. Permanent Standard Time lasts decades. Please tell Congress and your state legislators!

No! Year-round DST has failed several times. It increases accidents and depression. Morning is when sunlight is biologically needed most. Permanent Standard Time is best for health, safety, and prosperity.

Franklin took Dr. Fox's advice, and everyone lived happily ever after with Standard Time!

Springing forward from Standard Time to Daylight Saving Time “is bad for everyone; it creates risk, uncertainty, and disparities”. Furthermore, the decision of which clock to keep permanently is “a lot more complicated”.

Congressman Darren Soto (R-FL): “Would permanent Daylight Saving Time increase tourism revenue?” Professor Tyler Kleppe PhD CPA: “The issue is the cost of disruption to our circadian rhythms, which is well-established in neurology… That would affect all aspects of the economy, not just tourism.”
