[tz] Washington state to permanent standard time?

[Arthur David Olson]

"Washington’s latest daylight saving time proposal would mean earlier
summer sunsets."

The article notes that Washington state adopted permanent daylight saving
time in 2019, contingent on federal approval; that approval not having been
provided, the current proposal is to use standard time year-round (a switch
that does not require federal approval but allows the state to "ditch the
switch").

The bill text is available at...

https://app.leg.wa.gov/committeeschedules/Home/Document/264443#toolbar=0&navpanes=0
...and includes "...this act takes effect on November 4, 2024."

(Meanwhile, I've yet to find the introduction of a time-change bill in the
Maryland legislature; bills have been introduced the last few years.)
