The start times will still be in GMT (UTC) which will not change with any
change to the daylight savings rules. Sunset will remain the same in GMT time.
No reason to change the start times.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Effect of daylight savings on 160 meter contests
As many have heard, the U.S. congress is likely to pass legislation making
daylight savings time (the time you see in Spring, Summer and Fall),
permanent (no more standard time).
Ive noticed that many 160 meter contests have a start time that seems to
match that with sunset on the U.S. east coast and midwest.
Any thoughts as to if we will see a change to 160 meter contest start times
in 2023?
