Texas is the Arizona of the central time zone. It's time to ditch the annual switch to daylight-saving time.

Most of Texas isn't even supposed to be in the central time zone, let alone the eastern time zone (the effect of DST for nearly eight months of the year). Check out this great graphic from @SaveStandard. Let's #DitchTheSwitchTX for health and prosperity!

This bill is bound for failure, one way or the other, and ripe for a veto, @GregAbbott_TX. Permanent standard time is the best solution for Texas, not setting our clocks to New Jersey time (Mississippi time for El Paso). #DitchTheSwitchTX.
🚨BIG WIN FOR “TEXAS TIME” ⏰.After eight years (four legislative sessions), HB 1393 has finally passed both the Texas House and Senate and its on its way to become law if the Federal Congress acts to establish permanent daylight saving time—aka “Texas Time.”! . President Trump.

It’s “New Jersey Time,” not “Texas Time”. House Bill 1393, recently passed by the Senate, attempts to adopt permanent daylight-saving time for Texas. At best, this bill headed to @GregAbbott_TX for signature or veto will accomplish nothing—not even eliminating the semiannual.

The Texas Senate just passed HB 1393, which will move Texas to permanent daylight-saving time if Congress changes federal law to allow it. Dark days ahead—both figuratively and literally—if this path continues. Please contact @GregAbbott_TX, asking him not to make this bill law.

(Improved version of today's earlier post). Please reach out to your legislators to register support for permanent standard time and opposition to permanent daylight-saving time. Tell your state senator to vote no on HB 1393 (New Jersey Time) or to amend it to be like SB 692
Remind your legislators to act more like representatives and less like politicians. The public wants to end the clock switching, and permanent standard time is the best solution to doing so. #DitchTheSwitchTX

A vast majority want to abolish clock-changes, but it’s important we do it right.
