Relating to the designation of certain election days as state holidays.
HB 374 would designate specific election days (such as general elections) as official state holidays. This would require state government offices to close on those days, providing state employees with a paid day off without needing to use vacation time. The bill does not specify which election days would be included but would directly affect all state employees during the designated election periods. This change would streamline election day operations by ensuring government services are closed on those dates.
