Bill Summary

AN ACT RELATING TO TIME; EXEMPTING THE STATE OF NEW MEXICO FROM THE REVERSION TO STANDARD TIME FROM DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME WHEN 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 when federal law is amended to authorize a state to opt out of the reversion. The bill includes findings that New Mexico is entirely situated within one time zone and that federal law allows a state to exempt itself from the annual requirement to advance time for daylight saving, as long as it does so uniformly across the state. The bill's provisions will take effect on the first day that New Mexico advances to daylight saving time after the federal law change.
