Create a Native American National Holiday

Created by C.R. on April 20, 2012

Create a Federal holiday recognizing and paying tribute to the Native Americans and their contributions to this great nation.

The state of South Dakota has changed Columbus day to Native American Day.

The Federal Government should reevaluate Columbus Day by moving it back to its original day the second Wednesday of October and not be a tax paid holiday as is St. Patrick's Day and Octoberfest, and make the second Monday of October a Federal holiday for Native Americans.

The polls we conducted across the country show that the vast majority of Americans prefer changing Columbus Day as to creating a whole new holiday.
