Please stop DST. It is not beneficial to anyone at all. Just get rid of it. It's like anything else our government does... once it is implemented, it is never discontinued no matter how much it no longer makes sense. It may have been beneficial when it was first started, but it does not gain anything but aggravation for citizens who have to adjust our schedules twice a year. My personal vote would be to get rid of it. I also would prefer to stay on standard time and not just implement DST permanently. -

Please end Daylight Savings Time We can't save daylight. Shorter or longer days are part of the seasons, especially as you go farther North. Let schools, business, etc. adjust their hours instead of everyone adjusting their clocks.REPORT COMMENTS

PLEASE end this!!! What's wrong with an early sunrise??? Our kids really struggle to adjust (the sun is now not up until 7:30!) and it doesn't serve a real purpose. We don't "save" anything...REPORT COMMENTS

As I watched Daylight Savings wreak havoc on our school children this week, my heart broke for them. My bleary eyed children, who just last week were taking pride in feeling like they were waking up happier with the natural earlier rise of the sun, felt defeated and exhausted this week. This is no longer a need for this artificial practice. Please remove and let us remain true to the natural rythm of the earth.REPORT COMMENTS

Please repeal Daylight Savings Time. It's a terrible, outdated practice that makes for weeks of lost productivity while out bodies adjust to the new time. It's time we stop doing this. Several states do not ibserve DST and it's time we all caught up to this wisdom.REPORT COMMENTS

Please stop. There in no point anymore. It causes more car wrecks, heath issues, and bad moods than anything good. Maybe that is why there a lot of mental depressions then there used to be. I live in IN where there used to be no such thing, I was young when they changed it. I feel more tired all the time now than then because of it. I went from a morning person to not. Everyone I talk too says they want it to be ended. Plz stop.REPORT COMMENTS

Please end daylight savings time!!!! Daylight savings time affects your health negatively by constantly resetting your sleep-wake cycle every 6 months. It has been shown in numerous studies to decrease work productivity and cause accidents. So it's a no-brainer! End an outdated practice that is bad for your health and bad for productivity. Not to mention that if this administrative ends it that it will have a positive effect on all citizens and costs nothing!!REPORT COMMENTS

According to a study completed by two professors, Daylight savings time costs $434 Million in productivity loss. Workers tend to "Cyberloaf" on Mondays after the shift to Daylight Savings Time. Another study suggest that If you give workers more daylight at the end of the day they will stop and shop on their way home. According to an article in The New York Times, there is a 6% increase in injuries on the Monday following the shift to Daylight Savings Time.REPORT COMMENTS

Eliminate daylight savings time!! Early to bed and early to rise are known to make ourselves stronger. This also applies to our families, businesses, and neighborhoods. Daylight saving aggravates the natural need to go to bed by keeping people up later than they need. Natural daylight cycles help people to wake early and take advantage of healthy morning activities.REPORT COMMENTS

Please stop the "TIME CHANGES" !!! Every time it is changed it takes months to get my special needs son back onto his schedule. He losses so much sleep , is stressed out , has meltdowns all due to the confusion in his schedule due to the time change . It effects his health so much . Which in turn causes more doctor visits , more hours with the therapists in the home, and most of all the stress it causes us as parents. PLEASE STOP THIS TIME CHANGES ...REPORT COMMENTS

In our 24/7 world we do not need Daylight Savings Time. In 2017 it is time to reevaluate the need of DST. We need to stop this adjustment in our schedules. Students need to meet benchmark on the Common Core State Standards; difficult to maintain focus when students fall asleep in the afternoon.REPORT COMMENTS
