South Carolina proposes to permanently adopt Daylight Saving Time as standard time.
The bill amends South Carolina law to advance Eastern Standard Time by one hour starting from the second Sunday of March 2025, making this new time the permanent standard time in the state. This change incorporates the current Daylight Saving Time period into the year-round standard time. The bill includes provisions for the Attorney General to request a waiver from the federal Secretary of Transportation, and if the waiver is not granted, the provisions will become null and void ten days after notification.
