Spring forward. Fall back. Will Senate vote get rid of that?

Scott Yates will be the first to admit that his signature campaign issue may not seem like a big deal.

With the slogan “Improving your life, one hour at a time,” the former journalist and tech startup founder launched his campaign to be the Democratic representative for Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District earlier this year with a promise to #LocktheClock and end America’s biannual time change. It may not seem like much, says Mr. Yates, who also hopes to address student debt and climate change in Congress, but ending the time change could be a step toward repairing Americans’ faith in Washington.
