We’re still fighting about the time change, Florida.
When the U.S. tried permanent daylight saving time in the 1970s, the backlash was fierce, including in Florida.
Now Congress is debating the idea again, and the arguments haven’t changed much: More evening sunlight sounds great until you start thinking about dark winter mornings.
Here’s a quick glimpse of Florida TODAY, our statewide newsletter:

On the move: Florida’s pandemic population surge has cooled, but newcomers are still arriving in big numbers. New data shows where they’re coming from and where they’re putting down roots.
Photo finish: From breaking news to everyday Florida moments, our photojournalists capture the stories and people making headlines across the state. It’s updated every day.
