You will have to remember to set your clocks forward one hour on Sunday — but will it be for the final time?

According to USA Today, Florida Republican Rep. Greg Steube is the latest member of Congress to introduce a bill that would do away with the biannual ritual of changing the clocks. The proposal would shift U.S. time zones forward 30 minutes from current standard time and leave them there permanently.

Under the plan, Central Time would be 5.5 hours behind Coordinated Universal Time, or UTC, which is based on the Prime Meridian in Greenwich, England.

Proponents of the change argue it would improve public safety, reduce crime and boost the economy, in addition to saving people the hassle of changing their clocks twice a year. They also point to public opinion polls showing most Americans want to end the time changes.

A 2025 Gallup poll found Americans prefer permanent standard time (48%) over permanent daylight saving time (24%).

The Daylight Act of 2026 is the latest example of Congress attempting to end daylight saving time, which dates to 1918, when lawmakers passed the Standard Time Act before repealing it a year later.

Even if the bill were to pass this week, it would not take effect until 90 days after being signed into law — meaning you would still need to move your clocks forward this weekend.

Several states have passed legislation expressing a preference for either permanent standard time or permanent daylight saving time, according to The Hill, though Wisconsin is not among them.

Daylight saving time begins Sunday and runs through Nov. 1.
