This article by Chad Pergram from 9 hours ago is Clockworkish

 

 

It has long been said you could make the sun rise in the west if you could get unanimous consent in the Senate.

 

But who knew you that you could make the sun come up an hour earlier on a permanent basis — if you could convince all 100 senators to agree.

 

That’s what happened recently when the Senate approved a bill without any senator objecting to ditch the custom of switching the clocks twice each year, springing forward and falling back.

 

"Americans want more sunshine and less depression," said Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash. "Now the clock is ticking to get the job done, so we don't have to switch our clocks again."

 

Murray teamed with Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., and others to write a bill to eliminate the biannual time switcho-chango. And the Senate stunned everyone when it approved the bill.

 

Perhaps not a minute too late.

 

 

Like clockwork, Sinema briefly looked around the room.
