Senator Andy Manar is a strong advocate in ending Daylight Saving Time. Senator Manar was reached by High School Students at Carlinville High School. Senator Manar was surprised at how much attention this bill has gotten. He says that the only way this bill would become law would be if all of the United States passes the law, or Congress gives Illinois an exemption.
Senator Manar says that while there is a chance of this happening Illinois would not become an island and be the only State doing it.
The Illinois Senator says he was really moved by the presentation from the Students.
The bill would keep time the same after the time change in March.
