Oregon voted to stop Daylight Savings Time. Yet we fell back anyway. Here's why.

Didn't Oregon do away with daylight saving time? Why you still have to 'fall back' Nov. 3

[...] Oregon lawmakers said the change takes effect the first November after both Washington and California adopt year-round daylight saving time. 

Washington lawmakers passed legislation to do so, and California voters cast ballots directing lawmakers there to do the same. But the bill stalled in the state senate; California lawmakers say they will revisit the issue in 2020. 

All three states also face one final hurdle: Congress needs to sign off on the deal. And while legislation has been introduced to allow the change, daylight saving time isn't at the top of the agenda in Washington, D.C., as an impeachment inquiry and the 2020 presidential election approach. 

So stay tuned: Oregon lawmakers built a 2029 deadline into the law, so there's time for the change to happen in coming years.

The folks in D.C., are more interested in fighting with eachother, than dealing with anything we care about.

And so it goes.
