Presidents Day is an American holiday celebrated on the third Monday in
February; Presidents Day 2019 occurs on Monday, February 18. Originally
established in 1885 in recognition of President George Washington, 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.
