Texas state lawmakers introduced bills last week, proposing to eliminate Daylight Saving Time and put the final decision in the hands of voters.
The bill reads that, if approved, "this state shall observe daylight saving time year-round. This subsection applies to both the portion of this state using Central Standard Time as the official standard time and the portion of this state using mountain standard time as the official standard time." Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
If the act is approved by the Senate, the decision to abolish daylight savings time would be put into the hands of Texas voters on Nov. 7, 2023.
