Trump Orders Congress To Pass Controversial Bill

President Trump: Let Americans Enjoy More Sunlight, Less Government Interference

President Donald Trump is calling on Congress to end what many Americans see as a pointless and outdated practice—changing the clocks twice a year. In a post on Truth Social, Trump urged lawmakers to act swiftly and support a permanent switch to Daylight Saving Time (DST).

“The House and Senate should push hard for more daylight at the end of the day. Very popular—and most importantly, no more changing clocks, which is a major inconvenience and an extremely costly government process!” Trump wrote.

For millions of Americans—especially seniors, working families, and small business owners—resetting the clocks every spring and fall has become more than just a nuisance. It disrupts sleep patterns, increases the risk of accidents, and costs the economy billions in lost productivity.


Why Ending Time Changes Matters for Everyday Americans

President Trump has consistently stood for common-sense reforms that put the American people first. His push to make DST permanent echoes the frustrations of countless citizens who are tired of unnecessary bureaucracy and health risks linked to time changes.

Supporters argue that permanent Daylight Saving Time would:

  • Increase public safety with more light during evening hours
  • Boost small business revenue and foot traffic
  • Encourage outdoor activity and reduce energy usage
  • Help prevent sleep-related health issues, especially in older adults

Medical experts have warned that the abrupt shift in time twice a year contributes to serious problems such as heart attacks, sleep deprivation, and traffic fatalities.


Sen. Rick Scott Backs Trump’s Call: “LOCK THE CLOCK”

Leading the charge in Congress is Republican Senator Rick Scott of Florida. He has reintroduced the Sunshine Protection Act, a bill that would make DST permanent nationwide.

“100% agree, President Trump,” Scott posted on X. “It’s time to pass my Sunshine Protection Act and LOCK THE CLOCK!”

Although more than a dozen states have already passed legislation supporting year-round DST, federal law still blocks them from implementing the change without congressional approval.


A Commonsense Reform with Bipartisan Support—but Regional Hurdles Remain

The Senate’s commerce committee recently held hearings on the pros and cons of ending the time change. Senator Todd Young (R-IN) expressed concern for Midwestern states, noting that permanent DST could mean darker mornings during winter.

“A one-size-fits-all policy doesn’t always make sense for the heartland,” Young said.

Still, the momentum is growing. Americans from coast to coast—across political lines—are united in their desire to simplify life, reduce health risks, and bring more light into their evenings.


Trump: “This Should Be Easy—But We Need Action”

When asked about the issue in March, President Trump responded bluntly:

“It should be the easiest one of all. But it’s 50-50. Some want light later. Some want it earlier. But Americans are ready to stop changing the clocks.”

And the data backs him up. Polls show a majority of Americans support making DST permanent, and conservative-leaning states are leading the way.


Bottom Line: Americans Want More Freedom, Less Nonsense

Whether you’re a parent, a retiree, or a business owner, the time-change shuffle affects your daily life. President Trump’s call to lock the clock is just common sense—and long overdue.
