Federal government declared new year holiday
I'm not aware of any instance where the federal government in the United States has declared a new year's holiday. New Year's Day, which is celebrated on January 1st, is a federal holiday in the United States, but it is not a new holiday that has been declared by the federal government.
It's possible that you may be thinking of a different country or jurisdiction that has declared a new holiday, or that you may have come across misinformation. If you could provide more context or clarify what you are referring to, I may be able to help you better.
In the United States, federal holidays are established by Congress and are typically observed by all federal agencies, including federal offices, courts, and banks. The federal government has declared the following holidays:
- New Year's Day - January 1st
- Martin Luther King Jr. Day - Third Monday in January
- Presidents' Day - Third Monday in February
- Memorial Day - Last Monday in May
- Independence Day - July 4th
- Labor Day - First Monday in September
- Columbus Day - Second Monday in October
- Veterans Day - November 11th
- Thanksgiving Day - Fourth Thursday in November
- Christmas Day - December 25th
