An Act amending Title 38 (Holidays and Observances) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, providing for Election Day and for observance of Election Day as a legal holiday; and imposing a penalty.
HB 1674 would add Election Day to Pennsylvania's list of legal holidays under Title 38, requiring state offices to close and state employees to have the day off. The bill includes a penalty for failure to observe the holiday as mandated, likely applying to state agencies or entities required to comply. This change would directly impact state government operations and employee schedules on Election Day. The bill is currently pending in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives after being referred to the State Government committee.
