SB 1266 Arizona Senate · 57th Legislature - Second Regular Session

Dolores Huerta; Cesar Chavez; holidays.

SB 1266 adds two new official state holidays in Arizona: March 31 as "Cesar Chavez Day" and April 1 as "Dolores Huerta Day." The bill amends Arizona's holiday statute to include these dates, directly affecting state employees, schools, and government offices that observe state holidays. Key provisions specify the exact dates and adjust observance rules for holidays falling on weekends, consistent with existing holiday scheduling practices. This is a straightforward policy change to recognize these figures' contributions through official state observance.
