It will now head to the Senate for approval before going to the president for his signature — though its chances in the upper chamber remain unclear.

    My question exactly.

    Under ST in the winter it’s dark when I get up and go to work, and it’s dark when I come home. Under DT, it would be the same.

    In the summer, it’s sunny when I’m still trying to sleep in the morning and still sunny when I’m trying to sleep at night. Under ST it would be the same.

    The only difference would be in spring and fall, when the transition time would shift earlier or later.
