The clock change in Texas for 2026 is scheduled for Sunday, November 1, 2026, at 2:00 a.m., when clocks will fall back one hour to 1:00 a.m. [^1]

The US State Department announced on 2025-09-05 that it approved the possible sale of military equipment to Saudi Arabia totaling approximately $5.75 billion, according to a statement released on its website. [^2]

Major Texas cities including Houston and Dallas, which operate in the Central Time Zone, will adjust their clocks at the same time. [^3]

Texas State House Bill 1393 proposes adopting permanent daylight saving time, referred to as 'Texas Time', but its application depends on authorization from the U.S. Congress. [^4]

The clock change marks the end of daylight saving time and a return to standard time for most of Texas. [^5]

Saudi Arabian authorities requested permission from the United States to purchase over 5,000 BLU-111 bombs, 5,000 BLU-117 bombs, about 10,000 Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) guidance kits, and other equipment and support, with an estimated total cost of $5 billion, according to the State Department's statement.
