Existing state law sets the standard time for California and sets daylight saving time to begin each March and end each November. Existing law allows the state to set the standard time to year-round daylight saving time if federal law authorizes the state to do so. Existing federal law does not currently allow a state to set its standard time to year-round daylight saving time. This bill would set California's standard time to year-round daylight saving time after the federal government authorizes the state to do so, as specified. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
