AB 1841: State holidays: Native American Day.

What AB 1841 does, verified September 15, 2026

This bill would establish a state holiday on the 4th Friday in September, known as Native American Day, allowing state employees to take the day off with pay. The holiday would be subject to the department of human resources' determination that sufficient funds exist. State employees would be entitled to the holiday, and bargaining units could negotiate for a paid holiday. The existing law that allows employees to elect to use a personal holiday credit on the 4th Friday in September would be replaced by this new holiday.
