DOGE won’t be able to do anything because it’s a fake office made to keep Elon happy enough to fund Trump. It won’t last a year before Musk and Trump hate each other because two narcissists like that can’t share a space.
He can recommend ending DST all he wants, but nobody will have to listen to him.
There is already a push for this though. Not eliminating DST, but making it permanent. This is just DOGE trying to take credit for something that could potentially already happen. Like how the GAO already exists and DOGE is just citing reports the GAO already has done. Nothing says efficiency like putting two people in charge of a program that is duplicating what another agency already does.
Yes please let’s end the madness and stay on summer hours year round.
What is GAO?
Not eliminating DST, but making it permanent.
Typical that Musk would choose the more costly and environmentally damaging option.
Something something broken clock is right twice a day…
in this case, the broken clock is spinning erratically, and is never correct.
But a lot of them are misinformed. The current time is regular time. The time I assume sane people want to keep is “daylight saving time”.
This could go quite badly if it’s misinterpreted as staying on regular time year round, which is the opposite of what most people who say they want to get rid of DST want.
I just hope we permanently end Daylight Savings Time and stick with Standard Time. It’s detrimental to everyone’s health
Come to New England and see if you still have the same opinion. The sun sets before 4 pm some days of the year. Standard time can go fuck itself.
Yep. We should stay on “spring forward” time, which I believe is DST, year-round. No more stupid changing the clocks, and it may not be dark when you go to AND get off work if you do a regular schedule during the winter. The extra hour of sunlight is just a great summer bonus.
If they end time changing but keep us on the current time, I’m going to be fucking pissed.
The current argument against constant Daylight Time is that kids would have to go to school in the dark.
My dude, I live in the North as well, but noon is when the sun is at its peak, time is time.
I live in CT. Usually when we do a study on getting rid of DST (studies which never go anywhere) it’s about moving to Atlantic standard time, which would be essentially DST year round, rather than EST

Well, cue the comments about stopped clocks and righteousness.
