Daylight saving time a 'nuisance,' said U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville.
Sen. Tommy Tuberville shared stories from Alabama residents who want to do away with daylight saving time during a floor speech Monday pointing out his support for a Senate bill to stop the yearly tradition of springing forward and falling back.
“Changes to our clocks may have made sense when it first began, but it certainly doesn’t now,” he said Monday on the Senate floor. “To turn the clocks back each year is a nuisance and not smart policy.” A Mobile resident, the senator said, urged him to “please try and do whatever is necessary to have daylight saving time permanent in Alabama. Everyone I know and talk to wants this. Who would not want more daylight in the evening?”
