Thanks wissmiss. Looked it up. End of slavery holiday. Doesn't seem to affect me much. Another holiday for state and federal employees to get paid. Not me. I would think it would be celebrated more like Vets day or Pearl harbor day, lots of Americans died on both sides. What I looked up showed people dancing and partying. Guess there's two sides to everything.

Is march and august the last months to NOT have a federal holiday? I think it is only august. Easter can be in either March or April.

Yes, to round out the year of having a federal holiday about every month, there would have to be a fill in of March, April, and August. The major racial/ethic groups not currently represented are Native Americans, Hispanics, and Asians. The first could be solved by officially changing Columbus Day to Native American day. Some states already do, South Dakota for one but its a "light" holiday here, schools have their choice to be open or closed. Both Hispanic and Asian span more backgrounds so picking a single day for each would be harder. Maybe Simon Bolivar's birthday for Hispanics would be more inclusive but still leaving some out (Cubans, PRs, etc). Asian day is more wide open. In the Biden-Harris way of thinking, maybe when the last WWII Japanese interment camp was closed down, especially if that date fell within March, April, or August. If FDR/Truman would have been Republican, they'd be all over this one.
I'm saying some of this tongue-in-cheek...
"And God said, Let us make man in our image �and let them have dominion �and all the creatures that move along the ground". Genesis 1:26
