Relating to the creation and elimination of certain state holidays.

This bill amends Texas law to redefine state holidays by removing "Confederate Heroes Day" (January 19) and adding two new observances: "Emancipation Day in Texas" (June 19) honoring the 1865 emancipation of enslaved people, and "Celebration of Suffrage Day" (June 28) recognizing the struggle for voting rights. It updates the official list of state holidays in the Government Code, effective September 1, 2025. The changes directly affect state government operations, employee schedules, and public observances tied to these designated days. The bill makes concrete policy adjustments to the state holiday calendar without altering work requirements or funding.
