It's About Time
Two towns eleven miles apart on the same Tennessee interstate get the sunrise less than a minute apart. Their clocks disagree by an hour. And twice a year both have to reset them.
Jay Pscot lives a mile from a similar line — legally on one side of it, practically on the other. He also worked the Y2K bugs, including the one his own company tripped by ordering further ahead than anybody else in its network.
The House voted 308–117 in July to end the unpopular twice-yearly clock change by settling on year-round Daylight Savings Time. The sleep researchers say it picked the worst replacement available because Standard Time actually saves lives. Both sides are right, which is how this reform has died before.
It's About Time makes the case for the option nobody is discussing: A divide to end the divide. It is not the healthy choice. The math says so. It is the compromise under which neither side comes out the loser.
Nobody has to draft it. The bill has been sitting in a House committee since February 2026.
