Trump's daylight saving push gets new pressure campaign from House GOP leaders

What happened: House GOP leaders are pressing the Senate to pass legislation making daylight saving time permanent after President Donald Trump urged Congress to act. The House passed the Sunshine Protection Act, but it is stalled in the Senate. Key numbers: House vote 308 to 117 in July. Why it matters: Senate Majority Leader John Thune said there is no clear path forward, and Trump targeted critic Sen. Tom Cotton, creating another rift with the Senate GOP. Sen. Katie Britt expects debate when the Senate returns.
