Where U.S. states stand on permanent daylight saving time

Daylight saving time begins early Sunday morning. You get an extra hour, but now the days will turn darker earlier.


The intrigue: Nearly half of U.S. states have moved towards permanent DST, but not Illinois.


Why it matters: The biannual clock shifting is a constant point of debate among Americans, with some preferring more daylight in the morning and others in the evening (as DST provides).


The big picture: Lawmakers or voters in 20 states have approved some form of permanent daylight saving time, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.


But states can only adopt permanent DST with an act of Congress.
