Urge Congress to adopt Constant Sunrise Time
This Ohio Senate Concurrent Resolution asks the U.S. Congress to replace the current Daylight Saving Time system with a "Constant Sunrise Time" schedule. Under this proposal, local clocks would be adjusted on a weekly basis to ensure sunrise occurs at the same time every day, rather than shifting the entire time zone by an hour twice a year. The measure aims to address concerns about the health and safety impacts of large, infrequent time changes by making smaller, more frequent adjustments instead. It does not change any state laws directly but serves as a formal recommendation to federal lawmakers to consider altering national timekeeping rules.
