History
In March 2019, the Florida Legislature passed a bill requesting authorization from Congress for year-round daylight saving time, which would effectively put Florida on Eastern Daylight Time year-round (except for west of the Apalachicola River, which would be on Central Daylight Time year-round). A similar bill was proposed for the Canadian province of Ontario by its legislative assembly in late 2020, which passed though was placed on hold until Quebec and New York agreed to make the same change, which had not happened as of 2024.
