Hawaii is relatively close to the equator with minor changes to daylight because of season. Daylight savings would complicate international business and tourists, with no added benefit.

Arizona has determined the twice a year time changes complicate business operations without energy savings or any other benefit. Energy loss may actually occur because of increased use of residential air conditioning.

Overall, daylight savings are not uniformly observed internationally. Most countries do not observe daylight saving time as the US does. Countries that observe daylight saving time do not all change their clocks on the same days or time. Operating on standard time and ignoring daylight saving time simplifies transactions in the global economy.

Why don't Arizona and Hawaii participate in Daylight Saving Time?

ArizonaWhen Congress passed the Uniform Time Act in 1966, Arizona tried observing daylight savings for a year and decided to not observe it after much negative reaction. They have never observed daylight savings since. During daylight saving time (spring through fall), Arizona is on Pacific time. All other months of the year they observe Mountain time. The only exception in Arizona is the Navajo Nation, in northeastern Arizona, which does observe Daylight Saving Time.HawaiiHawaii is closer to the equator and experiences much less variance in daylight than the rest of the country and therefore opts out of observing Daylight Saving Time.
