Daylight Saving Time bill dies

CHEYENNE — A bill that would keep Wyoming in daylight saving time year round, essentially moving Wyoming to the central time zone if at least three contiguous states adopted, similar legislation, failed Thursday.

Sen. Wyatt Agar said Friday there was lively debated but ultimately the bill failed on a 15-15 vote. He voted in favor.

The grizzly hunt bill, Senate File 93, sponsored by Agar has been signed by Governor Mark Gordon this week.
