Relating to daylight saving time.

This bill, SB 516, would require Texas to observe daylight saving time year-round instead of switching to standard time in the fall. It amends the Texas Government Code to mandate this change for all parts of the state, including both central and mountain time zones. The bill states that if federal law later permits it, the change would take effect on September 1, 2025, pending congressional authorization. This policy directly affects all Texas residents by eliminating seasonal time changes. The bill does not change federal time zone laws but seeks to align Texas with year-round daylight saving time once federal approval is secured.
