US clocks fall back Nov. 1 as permanent daylight saving time bill stalls in Senate
Daylight saving time ends at 2 a.m. on Nov. 1, 2026, returning most of the US to standard time. While the Sunshine Protection Act passed the House in July to make daylight saving time permanent, it remains stalled in the Senate. Health experts note that standard time better aligns with circadian rhythms, but the debate continues over the trade-offs between morning and evening daylight.
