Bill Summary
The purpose of this bill is to designate daylight saving time is the official time of the state if Congress enacts legislation to recognize daylight saving time year round.
AI Summary
This bill, if passed, would designate daylight saving time as the official year-round time for West Virginia, but only if Congress enacts legislation allowing for permanent daylight saving time nationwide. This means that the advanced time, commonly known as eastern daylight time, would become the standard time for all state offices, schools, businesses, and other entities within West Virginia. The bill specifically states that this change will only take effect upon the enactment of federal law that permits states to observe daylight saving time permanently throughout the year.
