An Act exempting the state from daylight saving time; and providing for an effective date.

SB 102 exempts the state of Alaska from observing daylight saving time (DST), meaning Alaska will permanently stay on standard time year-round instead of switching clocks in spring and fall. This change directly affects all Alaskans, as it eliminates the twice-yearly time adjustments for the entire state. The bill amends Alaska Statute 44.12 to state that the state "exempts itself from observation of advanced time" (DST) during the period defined by federal law (15 U.S.C. 260a). The exemption takes effect November 4, 2025.
