Why is this even a federal issue in the US? In Australia time zones and daylight time are solely the responsibility of the states. I don't see why you need the feds involved.

Something about interstate commerce, so congress gets to put their hands on it.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Schools can _already_ decide for themselves when to start

If they started using that power to change what time they started every few months, you don't think that would cause logistical problems?

In the non-hypothetical places that already do this, it doesn’t.
