By bringing more sunlight to earlier hours, standard time ensures that kids aren't walking to school in the dark during cold weather. The medical community, which has been advocating for years to establish standard time full-time, was taken aback by Trump's proposal to end daylight savings time, a practice long thought to be backed by American economic interests. Daylight s...
