Daylight saving time could become permanent in the US if a Florida senator gets his way.

Marco Rubio wants to get rid of what he calls the “antiquated practice” of changing the clocks twice a year.

He has reintroduced a bill called the Sunshine Protection Act, which passed the Senate last year with no opposition but stalled when it reached the House of Representatives.

“This ritual of changing time twice a year is stupid,” he said in a statement.

“Locking the clock has overwhelming bipartisan and popular support. This congress, I hope that we can finally get this done.”

The bill would mean daylight saving time, which begins in March and ends in November in the US, would become permanent year-round.
