Sen. Judith Zaffirini (D-Laredo) filed Senate Joint Resolution (SJR) 13, which would exempt Texas from daylight savings so that the standard time is in place year-long. I personally believe the reasons for DST are obsolete and now does nothing but upset everybody twice a year. Time to do away with it.

As a side note, we could not establish a permanent DST, we have to just go to standard time and opt out of DST to conform to the Universal Time Act.
I think this is the first time Zaffarini proposed a bill I support and want to see pass.
