Plain Language Summary

# Trump's Birthday and Flag Day Holiday Establishment Act Summary **What the Bill Would Do** This bill (HR 1395) would establish June 14 as a federal holiday to commemorate both Donald Trump's birthday and Flag Day. If passed, June 14 would become an official federal holiday, meaning federal employees would receive the day off and federal offices would be closed, similar to existing holidays like Independence Day or Veterans Day. **Who It Affects and Current Status** The bill would primarily affect federal employees, federal contractors, and federal operations. It could also influence private businesses that follow federal holiday schedules. Currently, the bill is in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House of Representatives.

It remains in the early stages of the legislative process with no indication of when or if it will advance for a vote. **Key Context** June 14 is already recognized as Flag Day in the United States, though it is not currently a federal holiday. This proposal would elevate Flag Day to federal holiday status while adding the commemoration of Trump's birthday (which falls on the same date). Federal holidays require congressional approval to establish.
