Bill Summary
AN ACT RELATING TO TIME; EXEMPTING THE STATE OF NEW MEXICO FROM THE REVERSION TO STANDARD TIME FROM DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME WHEN THAT FEDERAL LAW IS AMENDED TO AUTHORIZE A STATE TO EXEMPT ITSELF FROM REVERTING TO STANDARD TIME.
AI Summary
This bill exempts the state of New Mexico from reverting to standard time from daylight saving time if federal law is amended to allow states to opt-out of the annual time change. The bill finds that New Mexico is situated within a single time zone and that federal law already allows states to exempt themselves from daylight saving time, as long as they do so uniformly across the entire state. The provisions of the bill would take effect on the first day that New Mexico advances to daylight saving time after the federal law is amended to permit states to opt-out of the time change.
