LETTER: House fails to act on daylight saving time bill

The sun set on a recent day at 4:31 p.m. and plunged Las Vegas into the gloom of an early night once again.

Had the U.S. House passed the bill that was unanimously approved in the Senate, we would have remained on daylight saving time perpetually and received relief from the rapid onset of night in the midst of winter. But the House did nothing — the bill didn’t even come to the floor for debate.

Thank our House representatives who did nothing to help us.
