Daylight saving time is set to begin on Sunday in the U.S., with clocks moving forward an hour. This change will bring longer days and brighter evenings as we head into spring and summer. The practice of changing clocks twice a year dates back to 1918, aiming to extend daylight hours during the summer. While most states follow this practice, Hawaii and most of Arizona do not observe daylight saving time. There have been efforts in Congress to make daylight saving time permanent throughout the year, but the bills have not yet passed. President Donald Trump has expressed mixed feelings about the practice, and many states have passed legislation to stay on either standard or daylight saving time year-round. Other countries around the world also follow some version of changing clocks during the year, although not all on the same schedule as the U.S. While some studies show potential benefits of using daylight saving time year-round, others argue against longer days continually. Overall, the debate over daylight saving time continues, with ongoing discussions about potentially making it permanent or eliminating the practice altogether.
