United States first observed Daylight Saving Time in
1918
. There were
no uniform rules
from 1945 to 1966, causing widespread confusion, especially in transport and broadcasting. The Uniform Time Act of 1966 aligned the switch dates for the first time. Following the 1973 oil embargo, Congress extended the DST period to
10 months in 1974
and
8 months in 1975
, in an effort to save energy. The United States has observed DST for 101 years:
1918
- 2019.
