Maine has passed a bill with a similar outcome (moving to AST)

On the coastal side of the enormous Eastern Time Zone, I like the idea of permanent EDT or the proposed AST. Permanent DST (nationwide) is slightly better for New England than AST, because it avoids the hassle of being in a different time zone than New York, D.C., et al. On the other hand, it's probably not as good for, say, Indianapolis.
