Per Article VII, Clause 1 of the Southern Constitution, We The People may introduce a constitutional amendment to the Chamber of Delegates if 1/4 of citizens sign on.

I hereby present the following amendment to be considered:
Quote
Daylight Savings Time Amendment
The following changes will be made to the Southern Constitution:

All references in the Southern Constitution to "Eastern Standard Time" or "EST" are amended to "Eastern Daylight Time" or "EDT".
This was introduced earlier this session, but unfortunately failed where 3/5 delegates didn't even vote. This is a common-sense amendment that aligns our elections with federal elections.

If you are a Southern citizen, please sign this petition and force the Chamber to reconsider. Per my calculations, this will need 25 signatures, or a member of the Chamber to agree to re-introduce this.

Even though dst should be abolished imo, we should be consistent nationwide.

Perhaps not my place to comment, but can this be changed to merely require that the South adopt the current federal standard?

Seeing that the people want this amendment reintroduced, it will be done.

Thank you, Spark!

Locking this thread as this is no longer necessary. I encourage The People to follow along with the debate thread on this amendment!
