I am with those who dislike changing clocks twice a year.
And as the clock adjustment is mainly to accommodate school kids having to go to school in the dark, and as the really short days last only about two months at a time (December and January), why not just adjust the school schedules to start an hour later for those months starting after Thanksgiving weekend? This would also not be that much of an inconvenience, I think, because kids are out of school for the two weeks around December 25th anyway.

Not again! Twice every single year someone feels compelled to resurrect the same old same old debate about pros and cons of DST. Where's that beating-a-dead-horse-with-a-stick emoji when you need it?
Congress should split the difference, move it once but only back a half hour and call it quits forever.!!!
