The Easter Monday Act, introduced by Representative Riley Moore and Senator Eric Schmitt, aims to make Easter Monday a federal holiday. Currently, as Easter always falls on a Sunday, this does not set aside a day of celebration in federal law. The bill would allow for families to be present with relatives, churches, and dinner tables. It would also make it clear that honoring the Resurrected Christ is a national priority. The legislation is modest but points in the right direction, stating that our public life should not be embarrassed by the Christian faith that helped shape our nation. It also provides practical benefits, as more than 80% of Americans celebrate Easter.
