I hope this gives us Americans the needed encouragement to do the same on the west US coast. Utter insanity to screw with the clocks twice a year instead of letting various institutions who have a compelling need, to publish "Summer hours" to suit them.

Apparently there is a Federal restriction: we can opt to eliminate DST, like Hawaii and Arizona, but we cannot unilaterally decide to adopt "permanent DST" as did British Columbia. So we'll have to figure out how to get both houses of Congress to pass a bill into law, and have the President sign it, without said institutions convincing the world that keeping your clocks 1 hour forward is woke propaganda and injects gay chemicals into tadpoles.

Isn't the simple option to just move time zones? If you're not allowed to swap to PDT year round, just change to MST instead.
