California State Senate passed #SB1413 #PermanentStandardTime bill after it was amended down to a study due 2027, not repeal of DST. Slightly better than nothing. In the western states this year, Oregon got the farthest with Senate passing #DitchTheSwitch #DitchDST bill #SB1548.

Oregon State Senate postponed votes on several bills including #SB1548 #PermanentStandardTime to Monday March 4. If it passes the Senate, next week is all that's left in Oregon's 2024 legislative session for House to pass it too. #DitchTheSwitch #DitchDST #PNW

#SB1548 #PermanentStandardTime bill is in Oregon State Senate. If it passes, it would still need House & Governor to approve. It would not go into effect until CA & WA pass similar laws. Time to knock on or knock down doors in Olympia & Sacramento. #DitchTheSwitch #DitchDST #PNW

"Oregon plan to ditch daylight saving time moves forward with key changes" by @OregonLive (mirror bot) - #SB1548 amended to set #PermanentStandardTime in Oregon only if Washington & California both do too. So far bill is in state Senate. https://www.oregonlive.com/politics/2024/02/oregon-bill-to-ditch-daylight-savings-time-moves-forward-with-key-changes.html #DitchTheSwitch #DitchDST #PNW

I submitted a statement to the Oregon State Senate in favor of #SB1548 #PermanentStandardTime. https://olis.oregonlegislature.gov/liz/2024R1/Downloads/PublicTestimonyDocument/113966 #DitchTheSwitch #DitchDST #PNW

Another amendment to Oregon #SB1548 #PermanentStandardTime bill makes it conditional upon Washington OR California (changed requirement of both to any of them) adopting permanent standard time to bring it into effect. CA & OR appear on course to #DitchTheSwitch #DitchDST. #PNW
