9. Is Either Day a Federal Holiday?
Both Memorial Day and Veterans Day are federal holidays in the United States, resulting in government office closures and special ceremonies. On these days, federal employees are typically granted paid leave, and most federal offices, including the U.S. Postal Service, are closed. However, state and local government offices, as well as private businesses, may choose to remain open or close, depending on their policies. For instance, while federal offices are closed on Veterans Day, the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ remain open. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management provides official information regarding federal holidays and closures. (commerce.gov)
