move the Thanksgiving holiday to the 3rd Thursday in November.

Created by S.F. on March 09, 2013

The Thanksgiving Holiday should be moved from the last Thursday of November to the 3rd Thursday in November. The Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays are too close together. By moving Thanksgiving back, it gives families who travel to see each other more time between the holidays. It also will help the economy by starting the Christmas season earlier. This will create more jobs during the season and give people more time to prepare for the Christmas holiday.
