Daylight Saving Time Ends Sunday
Many Americans will turn their clocks back on Sunday as daylight saving time (DST) ends. This annual change means lighter mornings and darker evenings in most states.
Time Change Details
On Sunday, clocks will fall back one hour, giving many people an extra hour of sleep. While some appreciate the additional rest, others find the shift inconvenient.
States and Territories Observing DST
- All states observe daylight saving time except Hawaii and Arizona.
- The Navajo Nation portion in Arizona does observe DST.
- Territories like Guam, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, the Virgin Islands, and the Northern Mariana Islands do not change their clocks.
Legislation for Year-Round DST
Nineteen states have passed laws aiming to keep daylight saving time all year. However, the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL) notes:
"Because federal law does not currently allow full-time DST, Congress would have to act before states could adopt changes."
Currently, only about 12% of U.S. adults support permanent daylight saving time.
Vintage clocks at the Electric Time Company in Medfield, Massachusetts, will need resetting to match Sunday’s change.
Author's summary: The annual end of daylight saving time prompts clock adjustments across most U.S. states, while debates continue over making DST permanent nationwide.
