New Hampshire HB1149 proposes to abolish daylight saving time and permanently set the state's time to Eastern Standard Time.
New Hampshire HB1149 seeks to change the state's timekeeping system by abolishing daylight saving time. The bill proposes that the standard time in New Hampshire should be based on Eastern Standard Time year-round. This change will take effect only if neighboring states—Vermont, Maine, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts—also adopt permanent Eastern Standard Time. The bill includes provisions for the new time standard to be reflected in all laws, statutes, and regulations within the state.
