HB 1782 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act providing for the annual designation and holiday observance of September 17 as "Constitution Day" in Pennsylvania.

HB 1782 designates September 17 as "Constitution Day" in Pennsylvania, aligning with the federal observance established in 1962. The bill encourages publicly funded schools and universities to hold educational programs about the U.S. Constitution on that date but explicitly states it does not require employers to treat the day as a paid holiday or official holiday. This is a symbolic designation without new mandates or funding.
