The Easter Monday Act of 2025 would designate Easter Monday as a federal legal public holiday in the United States. Easter Monday is defined as the first Monday following Easter Sunday, which itself occurs on the first Sunday after the spring equinox's full moon. The bill amends federal law to add Easter Monday to the list of official federal holidays, placing it after Washington's Birthday in the holiday calendar. This change would affect all federal employees, who would receive the day off with pay, and could influence private sector holiday practices as well. The legislation does not include specific funding allocations or implementation timelines beyond the amendment to Title 5 of the U.S. Code.
