This is to request that the President both rescind the decision to make Dec 24 a paid holiday for Executive agency personnel, and ban this practice for all future administrations. Our taxpayer dollars are being wasted so our government can have an extra holiday. This is a slap in the face of this country's hardworking taxpayers. We cannot use someone else's money so that we can have a paid day off. While the administration talks about a balanced budget, and lowering the deficit, it does this (spend more money and not work).
