"Presidents Day"

What is Presidents Day?

This federal holiday is technically known as Washington's birthday in honor of our first president and "Father of Our Country," George Washington. Washington's Birthday was the first federal holiday to honor an American citizen. As such, it was originally celebrated on George Washington's actual birthday, February 22.Various groups have attempted to establish an official Presidents' Day to honor all American presidents. Although an early draft of the Uniform Monday Holiday Act renamed the holiday Presidents' Day to honor both George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, the final bill as passed retained the name Washington's Birthday.
