AI Summary
This bill, the Daylight All Year Leads to Ideal Gains in Happiness and Temperament Act (DAYLIGHT Act), allows states to opt to observe daylight saving time (DST) year-round, rather than the current system of switching between standard time and DST twice a year. The bill amends the Uniform Time Act of 1966 to give states the option to apply the DST time advancement for the entire year. Additionally, the bill requires the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to study the impacts of implementing year-round DST and report the findings to Congress within two years of the bill's enactment.
