If all the beasts were gone, men would die from a great loneliness of the spirit. For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man, for everything is connected. - Chief Seattle

![“Making Daylight Saving Time permanent poses health and safety issues. Neurologists, sleep scientists, and major medical organizations call for permanent Standard Time, which better aligns with natural circadian rhythms. Our bodies are built to wake with morning light. When sunrise gets pushed later, especially in winter, it turns off our sleep, mood, concentration, even heart health. And for millions of Americans, permanent DST would mean going to school and work in darkness for months. During the Energy Crisis, the US experimented with permanent DST. Support collapsed once Americans experienced starting their days in darkness. Children were killed in accidents. Communities pushed back. Congress reversed course. Researchers find higher fatality rates where people are driving in darkness against their body clocks. More evening daylight may sound appealing. But this decision should be guided by public health and safety. —Congresswoman Nannette Barragán (D-CA); May 21, 2026 [Screenshot]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2coxtswrawkhgrzqgzvo6ibc/bafkreibuptoec5j5meq4g42mam57ffh6tpqmecthhorsv4tajbux3twkei)
