In a time when we're concerned about the spread of disease and illness, we still participate in an outdated practice called Daylight Savings Time.

This bi-annual event is outdated and no longer necessary. It's been shown to lead to:

  1. An increase in car accidents, workplace injuries, suicide, and miscarriages.
  2. An increase in rates of depression
  3. An increase in illness due to the shift sleep schedules (which takes a number of weeks to adjust to)

New York should let this weekend be the final Daylight Savings shift we must suffer.
