West Virginia SB528 proposes to make daylight saving time the official year-round time for the state if federal law permits.

West Virginia SB528 aims to designate daylight saving time as the official time for the state, effective from the second Sunday in March until the first Sunday in November. This change would apply to all public offices, schools, businesses, and other entities within West Virginia. The bill stipulates that this change will only take effect if federal legislation is enacted to allow states to observe daylight saving time year-round. The bill seeks to align the state's time with federal acts concerning daylight saving time.
