International Workers’ Day
AB 3042 (Santiago, D-Los Angeles) designates May 1 as a
school holiday known as International Workers’ Day and would
require public schools and educational institutions, on the day
that schools are in session prior to the day on which schools are
closed for that purpose, to hold exercises, funded through
existing resources, commemorating and directing attention to the
history of the labor movement in the United States. In addition,
AB 3042 would combine the currently observed “Lincoln Day” and
“Washington Day” into “Presidents’ Day” to be observed on the
third Monday in February.
