AI Summary

  • Alabama shall adopt Daylight Saving Time as the year-round standard of time for the entire state and all political subdivisions if Congress amends 15 U.S.C. § 260a to authorize states to observe Daylight Saving Time year-round.

  • The act becomes effective on the first day of the third month following passage and approval by the Governor, or upon becoming law by other means.

  • Current federal law prohibits states from observing Daylight Saving Time year-round; this bill makes Alabama's adoption contingent on Congress removing that prohibition.
