Creating a state holiday to honor Daniel Webster's birthday.

HB252 proposes to establish a state holiday to celebrate the birthday of Daniel Webster, a notable historical figure. This bill aims to recognize his contributions and legacy by making his birthday an official state holiday.

If passed, this holiday would affect state employees who would receive a day off on Daniel Webster's birthday. It would also impact schools and businesses, which might choose to observe the holiday. The specific date of the holiday would be determined based on Daniel Webster's actual birth date.

As of January 7, 2025, the bill has been introduced and referred to the appropriate committee. A committee report on March 18, 2025, concluded that it was inexpedient to legislate, leading to a motion adopted on March 26, 2025, that it is not advisable to proceed with the bill. The bill is currently inactive, and further action is unlikely.
