Daylight Saving Time (DST) is the practice of moving the clocks forward one hour from Standard Time during the summer months and changing them back again in the fall.

When Is Daylight Saving Time This Year? When Does the Time Change?
Daylight Saving Time always begins on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November.

- Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday, November 6, 2022, at 2:00 A.M. On Saturday night, clocks are set back one hour (i.e., gaining one hour) to “fall back.”….

House officials say they’ve been deluged by voters with split opinions and warnings from sleep specialists who insist that adopting permanent standard timeinstead would be healthier, and congressional leaders admit they just don’t know what to do….
