Summary
H.R. 4855 proposes changing the official observance of Memorial Day from the last Monday in May back to its original date of May 30th. If enacted, this would mean the federal holiday would occur on a fixed calendar date every year rather than always creating a three-day weekend. The primary impact on citizens would be a shift in the timing of federal office closures, mail delivery, and holiday pay schedules to align with the specific date of May 30th.
