HR 109 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A Resolution urging the Congress of the United States to make "Patriots' Day" a Federal holiday.

This Pennsylvania House resolution (HR 109) urges the U.S. Congress to establish "Patriots' Day" as a federal holiday. It specifically references the historical significance of the April 19, 1775, battles at Lexington, Concord, and Menotomy (now Arlington) as the start of the American Revolution. The resolution notes that several states (including Massachusetts since 1894, Maine since 1907, and Connecticut since 2018) already observe Patriots' Day on the third Monday in April. As a resolution, it does not create the holiday itself but formally requests Congress take action.
