Lunar New Year Day Act

HR 430, the Lunar New Year Day Act, would designate the Lunar New Year as a federal holiday by adding it to the official list of holidays observed by federal employees. This change would require federal offices to close and federal employees to receive a paid day off on the actual date of the Lunar New Year each year. The holiday would be observed annually on the date the Lunar New Year falls, which varies yearly based on the lunar calendar. This bill directly affects federal workers and operations, aligning with existing federal holiday practices.
