Will we have daylight saving time this year? Here's when clocks will 'fall back' an hour

WASHINGTON — Daylight saving time is coming to an end soon, despite a congressional push this year to end the annual back-and-forth clock change for good. 

For 2026, daylight saving time will end on Sunday, Nov. 1, at 2 a.m. sharp. It's the first Sunday in November, which is traditionally when clocks roll back each year. 

On that day, clocks will "fall back" one hour, granting most people an extra hour of sleep. With the change comes earlier sunrises and nightfall well before 7 p.m. It won't be until March 2027 that we adjust our clocks to "spring ahead" once again. 

Isn't Congress trying to end daylight saving time?
