Fast Facts: Daylight Savings Time is the Topic of Congressional Research Service (CRS) Report
Daylight Savings Time begins in the United States (except for the areas that don't recognize it) tomorrow.
This three page report from the Congressional Research Service provides historical background, how a specific area or entire state can change time zones, and moving an area on or off Daylight Savings Time.
Access 2006 Version of CRS Report (3 pages; PDF)
This is the latest version of the report we could find (we checked several CRS sources). So, some of what's discussed could have changed since then. Be careful.
