Daylight Saving Time to End Nov. 1 as Senate Delays Permanent Bill
ABC News reports that the U. S. Senate is unlikely to vote on the Sunshine Protection Act before the end of 2026, leaving the scheduled end of daylight-saving time on 1 November unchanged. The legislation would have made the seasonal shift permanent, but no vote has been set. Clocks are set to fall back one hour at 2 a.
m. on 1 November 2026, coinciding with the Halloween weekend. Health experts from PBS advise exposure to morning light to help reset circadian rhythms after the change. President Donald Trump has criticized the Senate for stalling the bill, and 19 states have already passed laws to adopt permanent daylight-saving time, which cannot take effect without federal approval.
