HB 1679 (2024)
Encourage transition to Atlantic Standard time in New England
Summary:
Urges Congress to authorize New England states to adopt year round Atlantic Standard Time, establishes an interstate commission between northern New England states to study the transition to Atlantic Standard Time, and transitions the state to Atlantic Standard time if Maine, Massachusetts, and Vermont also enact laws doing the same. This would essentially end the practice of Daylight Saving Time.
