Merry Christmas, America!
President Trump gave federal workers a gift this year.
Christmas Eve is now a federal holiday.
KRON4 reported:
President Donald Trump is giving federal employees a special gift for the holidays.
Trump on Tuesday night signed an executive order declaring that “all executive departments and agencies of the federal government shall be closed” on Christmas Eve.
While Christmas Day is a holiday for the federal government, presidents have reportedly been inconsistent when the holiday approaches during the week.
Former President Barack Obama allowed employees to leave early on Christmas Eve in 2015, but the year before he gave workers the day off.
