Drop "daylight savings time" and "standard time" monikers. Use UTC offsets, and tell us what state you are in.

New York and Michigan are currently in the same time zone. When we go to permanent time, they should not be.

Michigan in UTC-4 (EDT) winter would have a sunrise after 9AM. That's fucking absurd; they should not be on UTC-4 during winter. They should be permanently on UTC-5.

New York in UTC-5 (EST) would have a summer sunrise before 4AM. That's fucking absurd. They should not be on UTC-5 in the summer. They should be permanently on UTC-4.

Maine's earliest sunset on UTC-5 will be at 3:45PM. That is criminally insane. They should permanently be on UTC-4, or maybe even UTC-3.
