On Saturday, President Donald Trump took to his Truth Social platform to urge Senate Republicans to advance legislation establishing permanent daylight saving time, directing public attention to Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas.
Trump identified Cotton as a close associate and credited him with blocking the progress of the measure, which is formally known as the Sunshine Protection Act. By sharing the senator’s personal contact information, the president signaled his frustration with the legislative stall and encouraged constituents to apply pressure directly.
Can we focus on how nice evenings will be? My garden appreciates the extra light already!
Wow, escalating things quickly. This feels like a classic Trump move to bypass normal legislative channels.
Is permanent daylight saving time actually popular, or did they just forget to pass it? Seems simple enough.
I never thought I’d see the day Trump and Cotton were on opposite sides. Politics is wild.
This is exactly why I fear for our privacy. Sharing a senator’s personal number is reckless and dangerous.
