June 19th now a Federal Holiday, but, celebrated on June 18th, this year, because the 19th falls on a Saturday.
Our U.S. Government can move very fast and be 'Bipartisan', when they are giving themselves another long Holiday Week-end!

Once upon a time, I worked in a professional capacity on a politically-active Indian reservation. They had a term describing the "MLK's Birthday" holiday that was quite politically incorrect ("NND"). I wonder what they are going to call this one?

"No Mail Day of the Long Sun" or "Another Busy Casino Weekend"

At some point they will need to delete an old national holiday to add a new one. Every day can not be a paid day off.

FredC - All days are " paid days-off ", when you're retired!
Now, where did I leave my glasses?

Yep, your week consists of six Saturdays, and a Sunday.
