Give our troops the day after thanksgiving off.

Created by M.D. on November 07, 2016

For many years presidents have given their troops not actively engaged the day following thanksgiving as a day of rest. It has not happened in almost 4 years. It may not seem like a big deal. But for those of us away from our friends and families it means everything. It plays a major role in troop morale, not having to use leave days. It's a simple request with a simple reply. So please, Give our troops a little more time to be with the ones they love.
