Unfortunately, that is NOT what the article states. DST (Daylight savings time) ENDS on November 5th (when we change back to what is called "Standard Time"). 2 weeks later, DST (not ST) becomes the law of the land. Which means, as the OP stated, unless they change the implementation date, there will indeed be a 2 week flip-flop.



There is no "implementation date" in the current text of the bill. As written, it would take effect immediately.


I suspect it is in the amendment[1], which does not yet appear to be on Congress' website, as it was just passed earlier today.
