Clocks to Go Back: Three Impacts Daylight Saving Time Changes Can Have on You - What the Science Says
Clocks will fall back one hour on November 2, 2025, ending daylight saving time for the season as debates over permanent DST continue in the US.
- On Nov. 1, 2026, clocks fall back one hour across much of the United States at 2 a.m., giving many an extra hour of sleep as evenings grow darker.
- The Sunshine Protection Act, which passed the Senate in 2022, would make DST permanent but is stalled in the House, while President Donald Trump urged Congress to end clock changes.
- A 2015 study in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine found secondary school-aged pupils lost more than two hours of sleep after time changes, causing sleepiness and reduced attention.
- Hawaii, parts of Arizona, and U.S. territories like American Samoa and Guam do not observe DST, creating a patchwork as nights lengthen toward the Dec. 21, 2025 winter solstice.
- The debate pits evening daylight against morning safety, with daylight saving time about eight months, resuming on March 8, 2025, and lasting through Nov. 2, 2025.
