Designating Patriot Day as state holiday
This bill designates September 13 as an official state holiday called "Patriot Day" in West Virginia. It adds this date to the state's legal holiday calendar, which currently includes dates like New Year's Day and Independence Day. The change directly affects state employees, courts, and state-operated institutions, which must observe this day as a holiday per state law. The bill makes no other policy changes beyond establishing this annual observance.
