## Caption

The Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation holds a hearing "to examine turning back time, focusing on locking the clock."

"Twice a year, we find ourselves adjusting our clocks, shifting an hour of daylight forward in the spring, springing forward and falling back in the fall. For many Americans, this biannual ritual is a minor inconvenience, something we endure without giving it much thought," said Senator Ted Cruz. "But when we take a closer look at the implications of changing the clocks, its impact on our economy, our health, and our everyday lives, we can see that this practice is more than an annoyance."

"Changing clocks biannually impacts our health. Research has shown that the abrupt shift in time, especially the spring transition when we lose an hour of sleep, disrupts our internal circadian rhythms and causes sleep deprivation. This leads to increased risks of health problems, including higher rates of heart attacks, strokes, and even car accidents immediately following the time change," Cruz said. "In fact, studies have shown that there is a spike in workplace injuries and fatal car crashes during the days after we shift our clocks forward. The disruption to sleep patterns and the resultant fatigue can have consequences on our productivity, mental health, and well-being."
