Daylight Saving Looms: Exact Date Clocks Will 'Fall Back'

The House passed the Sunshine Protection Act by a 308-117 vote, but Senate leaders say there is no clear path forward for permanent daylight saving time.

  • Most of the United States will "fall back" on Sunday, Nov. 1, at 2 a.m. as daylight saving time ends, with clocks turning back one hour to 1 a.m. and granting Americans an extra hour of sleep.
  • Although the House passed the Sunshine Protection Act 308-117 in July, the legislation stalled in the Senate. Senate Majority Leader John Thune told Politico there is "no clear path forward" despite President Donald Trump's support.
  • Critics, including Sen. Tom Cotton, argue permanent daylight saving time creates dark winter mornings. Meanwhile, 62% of Americans favor ending clock changes, though Christopher Barnes warns permanent daylight saving time could cause "permanent circadian misalignment."
  • Smartphones and internet-connected devices will update automatically on Nov. 1, but residents must manually adjust analog clocks and appliances. Hawaii, most of Arizona, and territories including Puerto Rico, Guam, and American Samoa do not observe daylight saving time year-round.
  • Daylight saving time will return on March 14, 2027, when clocks "spring forward" one hour at 2 a.m. Unless Congress changes federal law, the nation will experience earlier sunsets and sunrises throughout winter as standard time remains in effect.
