I wouldn't be quite so fatalist - if there is a strong push for getting rid of seasonal time shifts then, if congress refuses this request, there will probably be a pretty big stink. Non-binding resolutions are non-binding... but they also represent the will of the people and politicians that gleefully ignore non-binding resolutions do so with a risk of failing to be re-elected.
