Bill Summary

An act to amend Section 6808 of the Government Code, relating to computation of time, and declaring the urgency thereof, to take effect immediately.

AI Summary

This bill would set California's standard time to year-round daylight saving time (DST) after the federal government authorizes the state to do so. Currently, California observes DST from March to November, but this bill would make DST the permanent standard time in the state if the federal government allows it. The bill also declares that it is an urgency statute, meaning it would take effect immediately, in order to prevent the adverse effects of biannual time changes on public health, safety, and the economy.
