    Don’t some states already do their own thing? Like Arizona? What is the holdup with allowing states to go permanent DST? Each state feels daylight a little differently due to basic geographic position so why are they dragging their feet or trying to implement a blanket policy. Let each state decide.

      AZ changed long ago and got grandfathered in before Congress decided this was an inter-state trade thing they should regulate. Same for Indianna I think?
