How the date works
Presidents’ Day is the third Monday of February, so it falls between February 15 and February 21.
The official federal name is Washington’s Birthday. George Washington was born on February 22, but the holiday moved to a Monday under a law that took effect in 1971.
Because the third Monday can never be February 22, the holiday is never on Washington’s actual birthday.
Federal offices, banks, the post office and US stock markets are closed. Many shops run sales.
