And here's the NPR story which leads with "the Senate passed a bill": https://www.npr.org/2022/03/15/1086773840/daylight-saving-time-permanent-senate I really don't know why that site does not list it, because it certainly should. But here you are. On March 15, 2022 6:07:36 PM EDT, Matthew Petach <mpetach () netflight com> wrote:
Please provide a link documenting this claim. I have been reviewing the actions listed on congress.gov, and this is not an action listed as having taken place. https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/senate-bill/623/all-actions?overview=closed#tabs The last action shown for this bill was taken on March 9th, 2021, more than a year ago.

My opinion of this ought to be obvious from my rhetoric. Hopefully, it will fail, because it's likely to be the end of rational time worldwide, and even if you do log in UTC, it will still make your life difficult. I'm poleaxed; I can't even decide which grounds to scream about this on... Hopefully, the House or the White House will be more coherent in their decision on this engineering construct.
