Should Opening Day be a Federal Holiday?


It’s a great day for baseball fans, no doubt. And many take the day off or skip out of work early. But should it be a federal holiday? The Washington Post says there’s a movement afoot to have Congress declare baseball’s opening day as a federal holiday. Mind you, we can’t even get Congress to declare Election Day a holiday. If I’m going to get an extra holiday, why would I want a random day in spring and not a nice long weekend in August?
