permanent standard time. 2

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE STATE OF OHIO (THE SENATE CONCURRING):

WHEREAS, The Congress of the United States first adopted 3
daylight saving time during World War I to support war 4
industries. In addition, continuous daylight saving time was 5
observed during World War II, referred to as War Time, and 6
during the 1973 oil crisis; and 7
WHEREAS, The benefits of daylight saving time include 8
additional daylight in the evening hours, increased outdoor 9
playtime for the children and youth, expanded economic 10
opportunities, energy savings, improved traffic safety, and 11
crime reduction; and 12
WHEREAS, States are currently precluded from establishing 13
permanent daylight saving time by federal law, which requires 14
the United States Secretary of Transportation to enforce uniform 15
application of that law across all time zones (certain states, 16
such as Arizona, previously opted out of daylight saving time); 17
