Rubio, Scott Introduce Bill to Keep Daylight Saving Time During Pandemic

“More daylight in the after school hours is critical to helping families and children endure this challenging school year.

What Studies? There are probably just as many studies that say the opposite. I can't see what difference it makes to the virus, in fact, just the opposite. People will spend more time at home when it gets dark. Some people want this change, and some people don't. Why make up stories?
