Daylight Saving Time: When Do Clocks 'Fall Back'?

Health experts including the American Medical Association recommend permanent standard time to better align with human circadian rhythms and improve sleep health.

  • Most of the United States will 'fall back' one hour at 2 a.m., shifting to standard time until March 8, without specific date references in the source.
  • Congress must change federal law to make daylight saving time permanent, but the Sunshine Protection Act and a 2022 Senate measure have stalled or failed to advance.
  • Medical groups including the American Medical Association and American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommend adopting standard time year-round, while Stanford University researchers found switching harms health and morning light resets the circadian rhythm.
  • The change means earlier sunrises and nightfall well before 7 p.m., reducing evening daylight for activities and adding strain on shift workers linked to car crashes and heart attacks.
  • In 2025 dozens of state legislatures are weighing time-change bills, with at least 31 states considering legislation and 18 states passing measures over seven years, while Arizona and Hawaii remain on standard time under federal law.
