The Health Cost: We detail the significant health disruptions linked to the time switch, including potential increases in serious conditions like heart attacks and strokes.
The Debate: Most Americans now favor eliminating the twice-yearly clock change entirely.
The Exceptions: Learn which states skip the change: Arizona and Hawaii largely do not observe DST, along with several U.S. territories.
