The Patriot Day Act aims to officially recognize Patriot Day as a Federal holiday. This legislative proposal seeks to amend section 6103(a) of title 5, United States Code , which enumerates the current Federal holidays. By inserting "Patriot Day" into this section after Labor Day, the bill would elevate the observance of Patriot Day to the same status as other national holidays. This action would establish a new annual Federal holiday, impacting federal government operations and potentially other sectors.
