Bill > SJR86

This Joint Resolution proposes an amendment to the state constitution that would allow voters to decide, through a statewide referendum, whether they prefer to observe standard time year-round or daylight saving time year-round. If approved by voters, the legislature would then be authorized to pass a law to implement the chosen option. Standard time is the regular time observed during the fall and winter months, while daylight saving time is the practice of advancing clocks by one hour during warmer months to make better use of daylight. This resolution aims to give the public a direct say in which time system the state should permanently adopt.
