Am really hoping for a ban on Daylight savings as it messes up with our lives.

How do I know which of the Florida representatives representing my district are in favor of ending this ? I tried to google but found nothing.

You could always pick up the phone and call them.

And when you call, be sure to call it Daylight Saving Time. There is no "s" in Saving.

It's not a ban. It's permanent daylight saving time - which I favor.

That's because being in the tropics, your daylength doesn't carry enough over the year to make DST effective, all you would get is really late sunrises and somewhat late sunsets

To all the people who want year round DST, do you all really want it to still be dark at 8am in the winter?!?
