The constant back-and-forth of the clocks with Daylight Saving Time is consistently (and strangely) one of the top gripes lawmakers hear about from their constituents.
SALT LAKE CITY — It is consistently one of the top gripes lawmakers hear about from their constituents.
The constant back-and-forth of the clocks with Daylight Saving Time. This year, Sen. Dan McCay is proposing to move to"Mountain Standard Time" and stay there.Sen. McCay, R-Riverton, has filed Senate Bill 175, which puts the state on a constant time and stay there. The Utah State Legislature previously passed a bill to drop Daylight Saving Time, once five other states agreed to.
"Every year I’ve put it in a survey and asked people. Our constituency, at least my constituency, is split on the issue," said Senate Majority Whip Ann Millner, R-Ogden."It makes it more difficult for us to move one way or the other when there’s so much split in the groups we represent." But if Utah decides to truly"spring ahead and stay ahead," it may still require approval from the United States Congress and even Sen. McCay acknowledged that wasn't something he had hope for.
"The last I checked, Congress isn’t very functional. Getting them to agree on anything at this point? They’re good at two things, expressing outrage or doing nothing," he said.
