An Act amending the act of April 13, 1887 (P.L.21, No.18), entitled "An act for the establishment of a uniform standard of time throughout the Commonwealth," providing for Atlantic standard time; and prohibiting the use of daylight saving time.

SB 364 would establish Atlantic Standard Time as Pennsylvania's permanent legal time zone, eliminating the current practice of changing clocks for daylight saving time. The bill amends an 1887 law to remove the provision allowing daylight saving time (which currently shifts clocks forward in spring and back in fall), making Atlantic Standard Time the sole standard for all government operations, contracts, and public business year-round. This change directly affects all Pennsylvanians, businesses, and municipal governments by ending the twice-yearly clock adjustments. The bill requires the governor to request federal approval to align with the Atlantic time zone if neighboring states do the same, but its core policy change is a permanent shift to Atlantic Standard Time without daylight saving time.
