Monday: Government Holiday

Monday, February 19 is President’s Day, the common name for the U.S. federal holiday officially designated as Washington’s Birthday.

The holiday was originally established to honor the contributions of the first U.S. president, whose actual birthday was February 22. The holiday’s theme eventually expanded to honor President Lincoln (born on February 12) and the legacies of all American presidents.
