LD3

An Act to Adopt Eastern Daylight Time Year-round Contingent on Federal Approval

Complete·6/2/25

Maine LD3 allows year-round Eastern Daylight Time if federal law permits and other eastern states adopt it.

Maine LD3 amends the state's standard time to Eastern Daylight Time year-round if federal law permits and all eastern states and the District of Columbia also adopt it. The Secretary of State monitors conditions and announces the effective date. This bill removes the requirement for all eastern states and D.C. to adopt year-round Eastern Daylight Time, allowing Maine to switch if federal law permits.
