January 9 Declared National Day of Mourning for Jimmy Carter; Federal Employees to Have Day Off

Credited from: NEWSWEEK

  • President Biden has declared January 9 a national day of mourning following the death of former President Jimmy Carter.
  • Most federal employees will be granted a day off, as all executive departments and agencies will be closed.
  • However, this day is not recognized as a national holiday for the general public, meaning non-federal workers will be expected to work.
  • Carter, at the age of 100, served as the nation's oldest living president and was known for his humanitarian efforts.
  • He will receive a state funeral at the Washington National Cathedral on January 9, with ceremonial events leading up to it.
