Establishes permanent daylight saving time in NJ.
S 1510 would require New Jersey to adopt year-round daylight saving time (EDT) once federal law permits states to do so. If enacted, it would amend state statutes to define New Jersey's standard time as Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) permanently, eliminating the current biannual time changes. The bill directly affects all residents and businesses across New Jersey by making the current daylight saving time period permanent. It does not change federal law but prepares the state to implement year-round EDT immediately upon federal authorization. The bill is currently pending in the Senate Transportation Committee after being reported out of the State Government Committee.
