We base our time based on location and satelite readings. If you are in the east, you are an hour a head of central time. Central time is an hour ahead of mountain time. Mountain time is an hour ahead of pacific time. So if you were following along, that makes the east three hours ahead of the west.

Where two offsets are shown separated by a "/", the second offset applies to Daylight Saving Time, which is in effect from the second Sunday of March until the first Sunday of November. Every place in the US that observes Daylight Saving Time must do so during this period according to federal law (The Universal Time Act of 1966, most recently amended in 2006), but each state has the option of partially or completely staying on Standard Time year-'round.
Time zones in the United States are governed by the US Department of Transportation.
