It’s time to spring forward
ALPENA, Mich. — This weekend you’ll lose an hour of sleep. Daylight saving time starts Sunday, March 14 at 2 a.m. If you’re tired of springing ahead every year, relief may be on the way.
Two bills introduced into the Michigan legislature call for an end to the back and forth- keeping Michigan on Daylight Saving Time all year. The bills were sponsored by Sen. Jeff Irwin, D-Ann Arbor, in the Senate and Rep. Michele Hoitenga, R-Manton, in the House.
The National Conference of State Legislatures said at least 28 states have considered legislation addressing daylight saving time.
