A headline that the Senate Passed Daylight Saving Time doesn't really mean anything because The House of Representatives still must give its approval.

David Shepardson, a reporter with Reuters wrote earlier this year that, "the U.S. Senate passed legislation that would make daylight saving  time permanent starting  in 2023," but the "measure called the Sunshine Protection Act must still pass legislation in The House of Representatives  before it can go to President Joe Biden to sign."

This past Sunday at 2 a.m. ET in the U.S. clocks turned back to standard time.

Senior Reporter Aria Bendix at Insider noted "this marks the beginning of winter's dark evenings."

Bendix notes in her writings, "the change renews the longstanding debate about the tradition and the vote in March "where the Senate unanimously voting in favor of the Sunshine  Protection Act which would make daylight savings time permanent year around for all states but Hawaii and most of Arizona, but the bill was stalled in the House. 

 Sen. Marco Rubio from Florida has suggested that the Sunshine Protection Act "would reduce crime, encourage kids to play outside and lower the risk of heart attacks and car accidents."

Rubio claims, "there's some strong science behind the Sunshine Protection Act showing and making people aware of the harm that clock-switching has."

The Four benefits of daylight saving  time drafted by those in support of this measure included,  1. There's more light to enjoy the evening, 2. The crime rate drops during daylight saving time. 3. It minimizes energy consumption (and lowers your costs). 4. It lowers the incidence of traffic accidents.
