    A record-setting increase of migrant families at the southern border continues to challenge the Biden administration as officials claim they're implementing more humane policies than their predecessors.

Yes - Most of the research shows there are several benefits to DST and almost none to standard time. That's why I voted to keep DST in my state three years ago. Too bad we're still waiting for Congress to approve it.


No - Living in the northern part of the country, the current system works well. ...
