        Congress should really have an office of a few science nerds to give quick answers for things like this. Similar to the office of accountants they have to check how much things will cost.

        Not really. Permanent DST is just being bumped forward of time zone.

        How would it break time zones? You do realize that just in the US, Arizona and parts of Indiana do not participate in DST.

      Id prefer to have daylight in the evening hours so I can get more done. I don’t really want to have to get up at 5 am just to see daylight outside of office hours.

        The dude is proposing making DST permanent so that US/Eastern time would be UTC - 4 year round. I personally don’t give a shit if US/Eastern is UTC-4 or UTC - 5 as long as they quit the stupid twice a year shift.
