Dear Federal Lawmakers:

Here we go again, tossing ourselves into a season of darkness that makes no sense whatsoever. Total darkness by 5 p.m.? No one, ladies and gentlemen, enjoys that slap in the face at the end of their workday. No one.

And look, it’s a campaign year. Even George Santos (R-NY3) could get some votes again if he ran on doing away with this annual calamity that only induces negative reactions from typical human beings in dire need of something – anything – that’s not depressing. People aren’t as tough and rugged anymore, we guess. Or, at least, they’re not willing to fake it like the American people have for as long as we can remember.

So, when Daylight Saving Time officially goes back into place on March 10, 2024, let’s leave the “jump up” permanently in place. More sunlight would be better for our minds and for our bodies, and that’s why the U.S. Senate approved the Sunshine Protection Act in March 2022. Sadly, there’s been no movement in the House, and, well, that’s just ludicrous.

Do the People’s work.

Sincerely,

The S.A.D. Society
