Move Memorial Day back to May 30th. and declare it a true Federal holiday!

Created by R.C. on June 06, 2013

I am petitioning President Obama to move Memorial Day from the last Monday in May to its original date of May 30th. I'm also asking him to make it a true Federal holiday by requiring government offices, schools and all national retail stores to close on that date. It is a chance to truly honor all those who have given their lives in service to our country.
