Recognize May the 4th, Star Wars Day, as a federal holiday.

Many federal holidays have been established to celebrate achievements of American citizens and actions. These citizens and actions have influenced many. Star wars is an American film franchise that has a achieved a lot and inspired even more. It has defined entire genres and cultures. It has also inspired many children to look beyond our planet and pursue careers that have furthered our knowledge of science, technology, and space. Because of it's influence in science and space exploration, as well as its affects on our culture, we feel May the 4th, picked due to the play on words, "May the 4th be with you," deserves to be recognized as a federal holiday.
