AI Summary

This bill, known as the Sunshine Protection Act of 2021, makes daylight saving time permanent in the United States. It repeals the temporary period for daylight saving time provided in the Uniform Time Act of 1966 and advances the standard time by one hour across the country, with an exception for states that have previously exempted themselves from daylight saving time provisions. The bill aims to provide more daylight hours throughout the year by permanently keeping the clocks set to daylight saving time.
