Oklahoma State Representative Kevin West (R-Moore), Assistant Floor Leader and Chair of the House General Government Committee, convened this interim study to discuss the potential benefits of moving the state to permanent Standard Time. His aim is to raise awareness among legislators about the history of Standard Time versus Daylight Saving Time.

“There’s been great confusion in the past about whether or not Oklahoma can lock the clock and move to either Daylight Saving Time or Standard Time permanently,” West said. “There are strong beliefs on each side of this issue. My hope is to discuss Oklahoma’s options under federal regulations and to determine the pros and cons of any move, so we can decide if future legislation would be needed or successful.”
