Daylight Saving Time Begins This Weekend in the U.S.

As clocks spring forward this weekend for most of the United States, a significant debate surrounds the future of Daylight Saving Time (DST). Despite the extended daylight, many Americans express dissatisfaction with the time change, with recent polls indicating that over half would prefer to end the practice altogether. Some states, like Maine and California, are actively considering legislation to eliminate the biannual clock shifts. Experts warn that the health impacts of changing the clocks can be serious, including sleep disruptions and increased drowsiness on the roads. As communities prepare for the time change, the conversation continues regarding the necessity and effects of Daylight Saving Time.
