So states he can't fix greedflation and moves to checks notes ....eliminating daylight savings. Pretty fuckin low on the list...
I'd rather be on savings time year round but yeah, the switch is the worst.
Good news for you: that's what he's likely planning (if he implements the 2022 Senate bill as-is).
Bad news for kids: that means they have to walk to school in the dark with sleep-deprived people operating heavy machinery in their vicinity for a bigger portion of the year.
"Won't someone think of the children?"
There's a pretty major difference between a moral panic and pointing out that something is going to decrease safety. Most notably, those moral panics are often opposed to things that actually do make kids safer.
Changing the clocks is already associated with an increase in fatal traffic accidents. If you're concerned about safety then let's stop changing the clocks.
Fully agree! But let's not change them in a direction that also has known safety hazards.
Broken clock.
Except that the Dems tried to do this recently and the Republicans wouldn't come to the table, but as soon as they are in: "oh hey guys, check out our great policy you all love".
Just saw this comment after posting saying it better than i: https://lemmy.world/comment/13969026
A broken clock can be right three times a day, if it breaks between 2AM and 3AM on the day of the DST change....

Finally something I can support
The Sunlight Protection Act has been put up several times and passed by the Senate as recently as 2022. It sits in a committee at this time. I'm sure trump will take credit if it works its way through.

Just trying to distract the public from any number of his fucked up shit
Trump says lots of things.
Who knows which he will actually try to do?
Or how many of those things he will actually succeed at?
