    There's no reason to continue with daylight savings time any longer. Put an end to now.

    This needs to be done away with, there is no reason for us to still use it.

    We live in an age of artificial light and children no longer need to stay home in order to help with the harvest. For the love of common sense can we end this practice that has no place in our society. Bonus points there is no left or right side of this issue. You get to brag about getting something bipartisanly done in this toxic congress. Think about it and execute.

    Recent polling in Michigan shows 66% are NOT in favor of daylight savings time, please put an end to this clock changing, it screws up everyones sleep habits especially school children. Why do we need it light out at 10PM in June and July here in Michigan.

    Please end daylight savings time! My husband was late to work this morning and he is never late to work! He over slept by an hour. We tried going to bed early but he could not fall asleep. There is absolutely no need for this time change. In the summer it causes the sun to be out way to late. Have you ever tried to get your kids in bed while it is still light outside? It is not a fun bedtime with young children. Even in late April and May it is hard to get school children in bed at a good time with it being light so long. It is hard on our bodies to readjust. Daylight savings time is a nightmare! Please get rid of it!

    We need to do away with the time change, it no longer serves a purpose and is more of a distraction then a help

    Just heard Dr. Oz say the change of time causes more auto accidents. And heart issues occur during this time as well. Good enough reason for me.

    I have to be up at 4:30am and do not end my exceedingly long day until after 9 or 10pm. I need my precious precious sleep. Please put an end to this tired old practice of DLS! (Pun intended)

    Stick with the longer daylight hours. It makes everyone feel better. Changing the time does not help anything.

    I am a new mom with a four month old. We just got our son on a sleeping schedule and now it is completely messed up! Daylight savings time serves no purpose but to stymie our children's and our own sleep schedules. Please spread the word to your friends and family to sign this petition!

    According to Forbes, over $1.7 billion is lost every year from production due to daylight savings time. There are statistics that more car accidents and heart attacks taken place during this time as well. Clearly the pros outweigh the cons. If you were to do a poll from 100 random people in any state, I can guarantee you will find majority vote against daylight savings time. In fact the more research I do and the people I talk to, no one seems to understand why we have daylight savings and what the benefits are. If you can come up with any benefit for daylight savings time, I can probably counter with double the amount of cons. Please make America great again. Please stop daylight savings time.

    One or the other, please. There is absolutely no need to continue to switch back and forth--it messes with our body rhythms and just creates more problems than it solves.

    Please discontinue daylight saving time ASAP. Daylight saving time is the equivalent of this anonymous quote: "Only the American man cuts the top off a blanket and sews it onto the bottom to make it longer." Daylight saving time is a stupid imposition on the American citizenry.

    Please end DST. It is tiresome to have to change all of our clocks and it is hard on everyone. It is not saving money or anything. It is difficult to get back into the groove of things once DST has taken place, my kids have the hardest times. They are grumpy and miserable for the first week after DST.

    Please stop the messing with our schedules. It's an antiquated practice that only aggravates people. As it is Arizona, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgina Islands, and America Samoa do not participate in this practice.
