As the seasonal transition approaches, daylight saving time (DST) will officially begin this Sunday, March 10, 2025, at 2:00 a.m. local time. At this moment, clocks across the United States will move forward one hour, resulting in lighter evenings and darker mornings. This annual shift has become a topic of discussion, particularly after former President Donald Trump suggested that he would not support efforts to end the time changes. ‘I think it’s a great thing, we need to keep it,’ Trump stated during a recent interview, emphasizing the benefits of extended daylight in the evening hours. Many Americans are preparing for the change, with reminders from officials to adjust clocks before going to bed. Experts note that while the time change can disrupt sleep schedules temporarily, many people enjoy the longer daylight in the evenings. The tradition of daylight saving time began during World War I as a way to conserve energy. As we approach the clock change, there are also widespread discussions regarding the future of this practice, with several states considering legislation to keep their clocks on standard time year-round. Whether or not Congress will act to eliminate the DST clock changes remains to be seen. For now, preparations are being made for the annual ritual of losing an hour of sleep.
