Time observance in Indiana.
HB 1337 would exempt Indiana from observing daylight saving time, meaning the state would permanently remain on Central Standard Time year-round instead of changing clocks in spring and fall. This bill directly affects all Indiana residents and businesses, eliminating the twice-yearly clock adjustments. The key provision is a permanent shift to standard time, removing the requirement to "spring forward" and "fall back." The bill does not change Indiana's time zone but ends the seasonal time changes mandated by federal law. (Note: This is a procedural bill focused on time observance, not a broader policy change.)
