How these dates are set
Federal law sets the 11 federal holidays (5 U.S.C. 6103). When a holiday falls on a Saturday, most federal employees get the Friday before off; when it falls on a Sunday, the Monday after. The Office of Personnel Management publishes each year's dates on its federal holidays page. The Postal Service and the Federal Reserve publish their own schedules, which can differ on Fridays before Saturday holidays.
