Saving Advice reports that because Presidentsâ Day is a federal holiday, but not a national holiday, non-government businesses get to decide whether or not they will stay open. While most banks and (and all federal credit unions) will give their employees the day off, there are some that will be open for business on Monday.
Presidents Day is celebrated on the third Monday of February. The holiday was originally established in honor of President George Washington to celebrate his Feb. 22 birthday. In 1971 it was named Presidents Day and was moved to the third Monday rather than on Washington's birthday as part of the 1971 Uniform Monday Holiday Act, according to history.com. Some states still have separate holidays celebrating Washington's birthday and that of Abraham Lincoln, whose birthday is Feb. 12.
