Trump requires that summer time stay permanent

US President Donald Trump asked Congress on Friday to legislate to abolish the time change so that summer time becomes permanent.

« The room of representatives and the Senate should be active to have more sun at the end of the day, » wrote the US president on the SA TRUTH Social platform.

A measure that would be ‘very popular’ and which, ‘more important’, means that ‘there would be no time changing – a great disadvantage – and for the state a very expensive event!’, Considers the leader from the White House.

In December, Donald Trump had already demanded the abolition of biannual changes, but said he wants to eliminate the summer time, contrary to the majority current in the Republican camp. Therefore, it seems to have changed its position on Friday.

In 2022, the Republican elected officials have already launched a draft law to do permanent summer time. The measure, which passed unanimously in the Senate, but not in the room of representatives, would have put an end to the changes of hour. But it would have meant very late sunrise in some states in winter.

« The change of time is an outdated concept, which is a source of frustration and confusion, » said Senator Marco Rubio, author of the bill and currently the head of American diplomacy. He has established a direct causal connection between the changes in the hour and the growth of ‘heart attacks and car accidents’ and praised the potential beneficial effects on the economy of a permanent summer.

The main idea behind the time changing was initially to match the activity hours and sunlight hours to limit the use of artificial lighting. But those who oppose the negative effects on biological rhythms, especially in children.

In Europe, the renunciation of the changes was adopted by the European Parliament in 2019, but its implementation has been postponed several times.
