ICYMI: Montana on the Brink of Saying Farewell to Daylight Saving Time Changes

The days of turning clocks forward and backward in Montana may be numbered. We have said this before, but it may actually happen. Wanting to do away with Daylight Saving Time is nothing new to us in Montana. In 2021, Montana passed a bill, which would keep us in Daylight Saving Time all year round and prevent us from going back to Standard Time in the fall.

Since that has passed, Montana has continued supporting other measures to keep the state in Daylight Saving Time, including Senator Marco Rubio's "Sunshine Protection Act."

I have never met a person who likes to change their clocks. It doesn't matter if it is the "Spring Forward" or "Fall Back," each time we change our clocks, it disrupts us both physically and emotionally. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of people who enjoy the longer days that our Montana summers have to offer; it just takes us a while to adjust after changing our clocks forward an hour.

There was a time when Montana didn't change their clocks at the traditional times. It was short lived back in the 1970's. After all the complaining and frustration for decades, it looks like we are finally doing away with changing our clocks.

In case you missed it, both Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have both spoken about the idea of doing away with the idea of changing clocks twice a year, according to Yahoo Finance. They may be given the power to finally do something about it. The more support they receive, the likelier it becomes that we may finally stop changing clocks in the future.
