Really, really bad idea unless DC and VA were to switch at the same time.

If one jurisdiction does it, I'm guessing it would force the other two jurisdictions to adopt.
Still, people in the Midwest near the timeline or those who live along the California/Arizona border deal with this every year.

Exactly.

I’m surprised insurance companies don’t lobby harder for this, given that accidents tend to spike in the day(s) after we change the time.

But the opposite would be great - drop off kids at 9 at school in md and then be in the office in dc at 8:30.

If passed, the legislation would be contingent on changes being made to the federal Uniform Time Act, which allows states to exempt themselves from observing Daylight Saving Time, but requires a change in federal law to remain on Daylight Saving Time year-round.

Maryland could spring forward permanently with Daylight Saving Time bill
ANNAPOLIS, Md. — At 2 a.m. Sunday, hundreds of millions of Americans will “spring forward” one hour in the annual observance of Daylight Saving Time — gaining an hour of sunlight but losing an hour of sleep.
Some Maryland lawmakers are aiming to change that.
Whether it’s gaining an hour or losing an hour, the time change can be disruptive.
YES PLESE to the sun rising at 8:30 am in January?
Not for me.

There is a little more to it than that...
