Eid Days Act
This bill designates Eid al-Adha and Eid al-Fitr as official public holidays for federal employees. It amends federal law to require the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to determine the annual dates for these holidays based on the Islamic calendar and publish them publicly. The bill directly affects federal workers and agencies, granting them paid time off on these days. Key provisions include OPM's annual determination of dates and the specific definition of "Eid Day" as the first day of each Eid holiday.
