The original idea behind daylight savings time was to reduce energy consumption by making better use of daylight during the longer days of summer. The idea was simple. Fewer hours of darkness meant less electricity consumption for lighting and heating.
This concept might have made sense in the early 20th century when our economy and our homes relied much more heavily on energy consumption tied to daylight hours. Today, the data show energy savings from daylight savings time are de minimis, if not entirely non-existent.

But the back and forth between daylight savings time and standard time needs to change and needs to stop. We need to stop the clock. We need to find a solution and stick with it.

be winners and losers no matter which way the knot is cut. We recognize the sleep-related arguments for standard time, but the benefits of extended daylight for physical and mental health, outdoor recreation, and public safety are significant. Obesity, depression, and crime all have ties to reduced daylight. and sedentary lifestyles.

So in short, we urge the Senate to avoid the consequences of permanent standard time. We encourage solutions that preserve evening daylight for golf, for health, for recreation, and local economies.

The sun is one of the most powerful drivers of health and well-being, but the timing of sunlight is what's critically important. Without enough morning light or with too much evening light, our circadian rhythms delay. This disrupts our sleep patterns and our body and brain function. Permanent daylight savings time would cause sunrises after 8 a.m.

for two to four months every winter, depriving us of this critical morning light. This is why permanent daylight saving time would be exponentially worse than seasonal daylight saving time.

Dishwashers, toilets, sinks. But the showerheads are a huge deal.
