Bill Summary
Currently, "United States Mountain Standard Time" (MST) is the standard time within Colorado, except during the period of daylight saving time (i.e., the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November) when time is advanced one hour. The bill exempts the state from observing daylight saving time, making MST the standard time year-round.
AI Summary
This bill exempts the state of Colorado, including all its political subdivisions, from observing daylight saving time, making United States Mountain Standard Time the standard time year-round in the state. The bill cites the Uniform Time Act of 1966, which provides for the annual advancement of time, commonly referred to as daylight saving time, and states that Colorado is exempt from this provision. The bill will take effect on November 4, 2019, unless a referendum petition is filed, in which case it will be subject to approval by the people at the general election in November 2020.
