US clocks fall back as Trump’s daylight saving push hits Senate wall
Most Americans reverted to standard time at 2 a.m. on Nov. 1, 2026, despite President Trump’s urgent calls to make daylight saving time permanent. The Sunshine Protection Act, which passed the House in July, remains stalled in the Senate due to opposition from Sen. Tom Cotton and concerns over winter sunrise times. While the President has publicly pressured lawmakers, including sharing a senator’s phone number, the bill faces significant hurdles before the 119th Congress ends in January.
