Why this petition matters

Started by Dylan White

The day after we spring forward for DST is causing us all health problems.

Moving our clocks in either direction changes the principal time cue -- light -- for setting and resetting our 24-hour natural cycle, or circadian rhythm. In doing so, our internal clock becomes out of sync or mismatched with our current day-night cycle. This causes things like a rise in blood pressure, car accidents when people are too tired to drive, and more! 

We need a day off to adjust to the new time!
