    IIRC the issue was we can’t pass “permanent standard time” laws but we could pass “permanent daylight time”. I could be wrong though

      The states are actually allowed to switch to permanent standard time any time they want without any objections from the federal government.

      Permanent DST requires laws to be changed.
