This legislative proposal aims to establish September 11 as a new legal public holiday , officially titled the "September 11 Day of Remembrance." The bill achieves this by amending section 6103(a) of title 5, United States Code , which enumerates existing federal holidays. Specifically, it inserts the new holiday after the entry for Labor Day, ensuring its recognition within federal law. This designation would provide federal employees with a paid day off, fostering a national day of remembrance and reflection for the victims, first responders, and all impacted by the tragic events of September 11, 2001.
