Following President Donald Trump's public call to end the biannual clock-changing process, House GOP leaders are pressuring the Senate to pass the Sunshine Protection Act. The House passed the measure in July with a 308-117 bipartisan vote, but it faces opposition in the Senate from members like Tom Cotton, who cite concerns over dark winter mornings.
