Harriet Tubman Day Act
The Harriet Tubman Day Act would add "Harriet Tubman Day" to the list of federal holidays for U.S. government employees, as specified in Section 6103(a) of Title 5 of the U.S. Code. This bill does not establish a specific date for the holiday but would insert it into the existing federal holiday schedule, following Washington's Birthday. It directly affects federal employees, who would receive a paid day off on this new holiday, and federal agencies, which would close on that day. The bill is procedural, focusing solely on naming the holiday without altering other holiday dates or creating new obligations.
