Daylight Saving Time 2023: Clocks 'Fall Back' Soon

The Sunshine Protection Act, a bill that would make daylight saving time permanent, was unanimously approved by the U.S. Senate in 2022 but did not pass in the U.S. House of Representatives or get signed into law by President Joe Biden. A 2023 version of the act has remained idle in Congress. Daylight saving time was first implemented in the U.S. in 1918 and has undergone various changes since then. Not all states and U.S. territories participate in daylight saving time, including Hawaii, Arizona (except the Navajo Nation), and several territories.
