Bill Proposed to Make Trump’s Birthday a Federal Holiday

Rep. Claudia Tenney has introduced legislation to designate June 14 as 'Trump’s Birthday and Flag Day,' honoring the former president's legacy.

The proposed 'Trump’s Birthday and Flag Day Holiday Establishment Act' seeks to make June 14, which is both Donald Trump’s birthday and Flag Day, a federal holiday.
Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) described Trump as the 'founder of America’s Golden Age' and the 'most consequential president in modern American history.'
The bill, H.R. 1395, has yet to gain co-sponsors or advance in Congress, and it currently awaits review by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
Critics have labeled the proposal as sycophantic, pointing to other recent Republican-led efforts to honor Trump, including proposals to carve his likeness into Mount Rushmore and to allow him a third presidential term.
Flag Day, commemorating the adoption of the U.S. flag in 1777, is currently recognized as a day of observance but not a federal holiday.
