AN ACT

To amend chapter 1, RSMo, by adding thereto one new section relating to daylight saving time elimination.

---

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the state of Missouri, as follows:

            Section A. Chapter 1, RSMo, is amended by adding thereto one new section, to be known as section 1.340, to read as follows:

            1.340. 1. There is hereby established the “Daylight Saving as New Standard Time Pact” consisting of this state and any other state desiring to permanently change daylight saving time to a new standard time.

            2. The state of Missouri hereby exempts all areas of the state from the daylight saving time provisions of 15 U.S.C. Section 260a.

            3. In the year in which at least twenty states have passed legislation entering those states into the Daylight Saving as New Standard Time Pact, each state will switch clocks to daylight saving for the last time and daylight saving time will be eliminated. The time formerly known as daylight saving time will become standard time. After this time, Missouri and all other participating states will no longer observe daylight saving time.
