The daylight savings debate misses the point: let’s make work hours flexible | Lynne Peeples

Trump and others have called for an end to clock changes. But our body clocks are all different - and ignoring them takes a toll

In a week, we will spring forward to daylight saving time. Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy all recently shared their desires to end the biannual flip-flopping of our clocks. The Republican senator Rick Scott recently reintroduced the Sunshine Protection Act, which would lock our clocks on daylight saving time. Scientists, meanwhile, urge us to adopt the opposite: permanent standard time.

The DST debate is heating back up. But all this chatter is, once again, largely missing the point-an omission particularly glaring for an administration that claims to be seeking greater efficiency.
