Description

Congress took its biggest step yet toward ending the twice-yearly changing of the clocks. The House passed the Sunshine Protection Act, which would make daylight saving time permanent nationwide. The bipartisan bill now heads to the Senate, where a similar effort stalled several years ago. Geoff Bennett discussed the push to stop changing the clocks with Scott Yates of the Lock the Clock Alliance. Watch PBS News for daily, breaking and live news, plus special coverage.
