No one has mentioned Hawaii.
Hawaii is the other state (other than Arizona) that does not observe DST.
Indiana changed this year, and observed DST statewide.

The Standard Time Act of 1918 standardized the time zones first implemented by the railroads nearly 30 years before and mandated adoption of daylight time for the entire country. That mandate was repealed, under pressure from the states, in 1919. -- US Naval Observatory.
"The Department of the Navy serves as the country's official timekeeper, with the Master Clock facility at the Washington Naval Observatory"--National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Years 1992 and 1993
The U.S. Naval Observatory (USNO) is established as the Department of Defense reference for time by DoD Directive 5160.51 of 14 Jun 85 and SECNAV Instruction 4120.20 of 04 Feb 86.
There have been several instances where Daylight time was uniformly applied across the country. From 1942-1945, daylight time was adopted across the nation to conserve wartime electricity. A similar measure was taken in 1973-1975 following the oil embargo of 1973. On January 6, 1974, implementing the Daylight Saving Time Energy Act, clocks were set ahead for a fifteen-month period through April 27, 1975. This experiment worked, but Congress did not continue the experiment in 1975 because of opposition -- mostly from the farming states.

I think Arizona and maybe some others do not. I hate daylight savings time and wish Pennsylvania did not.

Arizona does not observe daylight saving time but the Navajo reservation which lies almost entirely within Arizona does.
In Mexico, Sonora does not observe daylight saving time.

I believe that Indiana or Arizona does not change the time for daylight savings time.
I'm not sure about Alaska.
Have a lovely rest of the day.
