This bill would add Easter Monday to the list of federal holidays. In simple terms, it makes the Monday after Easter a legal public holiday for the federal government by inserting “Easter Monday” into the federal holiday law (5 U.S.C. 6103(a)).

Key points:

• Who is affected: Federal agencies and employees, and people who rely on federal services that close on federal holidays.
• What changes: Easter Monday would be recognized as a federal holiday nationwide.
• Day-to-day impact: Many federal offices would close that day, and some government services could be delayed or rescheduled, as with other federal holidays.
