In a recent executive order, President Trump has declared Christmas Eve and December 26 as federal holidays, giving most federal employees two additional days off during the holiday season. While federal agencies like the Social Security Administration and the IRS will remain open, many other federal workers will enjoy a five-day weekend. This decision raises questions regarding the operational status of various services, including post offices and banks, during these newly designated holidays. Questions also arise about what these changes mean for holiday mail deliveries and service availability. As federal workers prepare for time off, local agencies are clarifying their holiday schedules in light of the announcement.
