“Presidents’ Day”
Presidents’ Day is an American holiday on every 3rd
Monday of February, celebrating all U.S. presidents past and present. This holiday
was originally made to celebrate Washington’s Birthday by the federal
government but then people starting knowing it as Presidents’ Day. After that
it moved on to 1971’s Uniform Monday Holiday Act, an attempt to create more three-day
weekends for workers all over America. There are still a few states today who
just celebrate Washington’s Birthday individually honoring him. Now today it is
just known as Presidents’ Day throughout most of America celebrating all the
Presidents.
