That’s what Utah plans to do but there is currently a federal law that prohibits the use of permanent DST. Utah, California, and a couple other states have asked the federal government to change that law and I believe there are plans to consider it soon.

Utah has passed a law that makes DST permanent as soon as the federal law is removed.

Edit: On further review, this seems to have died in committee.

Florida passed theirs. Other states too but I don't recall which.
