美国总统日,美国总统日是几月几日,Presidents'Day
Presidents’ Day is an American holiday celebrated on the third Monday in February. Originally established in 1885 in recognition of President George Washington, it is still officially called “Washington’s Birthday” by the federal government. Traditionally celebrated on February 22—Washington’s actual day of birth—the holiday became popularly known as Presidents’ Day after it was moved as part of 1971’s Uniform Monday Holiday Act, an attempt to create more three-day weekends for the nation’s workers. While several states still have individual holidays honoring the birthdays of Washington, Abraham Lincoln and other figures, Presidents’ Day is now popularly viewed as a day to celebrate all U.S. presidents past and present.The date was not a national holiday until 1968.
总统日是美国的10个法定节日之一,定在每年二月的第三个星期一,与阵亡将士纪念日,感恩节等享有同等地位;每年的这一天美国人都会用一些特殊的方式来重温历史、缅怀人们心中备受尊敬的伟大总统,学校和家长也会在这一天对孩子进行爱国主义教育,让他们了解和熟悉美国的历史。
