    Please abolish day light savings time. Changing the time for 3 full months out of the year doesn't offer any purpose or value.

    It is 2017, why are we still living in 40's? We have advanced so much since then and there simply no need for daylight savings anymore.

    There ia simply no need for this anymore as once in far past. It is simply not natural to get up in dark. It is impossible to get kids to go to bed when it is still light at 9:30pm. We should not have to put our elementary kids out to bus in dark! It does not save electricity! It does not promote more outside time or shopping. It just messes us all up.

    It is much more difficult to wake up to total darkness, & not safe for children to be waiting for the bus in the dark. It makes it too hot in the evenings, so you use more AC after work and before bedtime. Lights in the morning use less energy than AC.

    Daylight Saving Time is a lame process and another one of those things we can't seem to get Congress to fix.

    This has to STOP . There's no reason for this practice anymore. It's also very unhealthy, it messes up with our own natural body cycles and it is just not necessary anymore!

    It is ridiculous that we are forced to change the time in this day and age. There is absolutely no reason for it and as a matter of fact studies have shown that it is not good for our health. Mother Nature takes care of the time change already and to do this practice has no place or reason!

    Please abolish Daylight Savings Time. The American people were lied to, professing that it helped the farmers, when in truth, the reason it was installed as legislation was to reduce the use of electricity and prevent car accidents, both of which DST does not do. Abolish it. How many signature does it take?

    DST is BS. It does not save energy. It causes health problems for everyone. It also causes errors in the workplace and automobile accidents as well as payroll complications for 24/7 businesses. Why do we need the sun to set at 9pm in June? I would rather wear blinders over my eyes at 4:45 in the morning than be kept up until 10 due to DST. End this nonsense.

    The may have been energy savings 50 years ago but today more energy is wasted when schedules change. Lets pick a year when we will stop using DST. Make it 5 years from now so software companies can start changing there systems. Once that day comes we can move one without interrupted schedules. Please end daylight wasting time.

    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.

    Early morning sunrise energizer me and get my day off to a great start. while during daylight saving and it's late evening sunset have opposite effect. it only drain my energy and leave me too restless to get a goodnight sleep. So next week when my my 3:30 am wake up call come s calling it will feel like 2:30 am . and after my 1 1/2" hour drive in the morning and an 8 1/2 work day, come the real fun part , my 2 hour drive home and all i can do during my drive is fight to stay awake ( it makes for a real safe situation) "not" ). this struggle goes on until almost June before i adjust to the change. i have to drop a lot of caffeine and other unhealthy alternatives to stay awake .Yet the government claims to care about our health and our well being. (sigh).

    Please end this foolish practice. It is dangerous for children to be out at such an early time. It serves no practical purpose, and is not healthy.
