Congress can only designate holidays for government offices and employees. The US does not have any "national days" as other countries do. Also, the government can't force any state to observe a particular holiday. There is only one religious holiday that is a federal holiday, Christmas. Some claim that it is because of the separation of church and state.
There is not a holiday today, April 21, 2014. Easter was on April 20th.
A bank holiday isn't celebrating Easter and and Easter holiday is.
It depends on which country are you living in. It also has to do with the fact that Easter is a "religious" holiday, as well as Christmas and technically Thanksgiving. The difference with Christmas being Paid- holiday and Easter not being paid is for the simple fact that Easter is a christian celebrated event to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ , thus the Government cant submit to one religion, therefore Easter Day cannot be labeled a Federal Holiday
One such holiday is Easter.
Easter was declared as a national holiday
Technically, yes, but some will say that holidays like Easter, which is a religious holiday, or April Fools Day which is a popular holiday are indeed national holidays because so many in the nation see them as holidays, even though they are not federal holidays.
As Easter itself is always on a Sunday, it can't be a holiday. So in many places around the world Easter Monday is a holiday.
The next holiday after President's Day would be St. Patrick's Day or Easter.
