US holidays don't apply to private workers. Lots of companies do offer paid days off on those days, but it would be a new thing to make them required paid days

- TheNewsIsHere 3y agoAnd some companies go beyond and -expect- you to take a minimum number of paid days off, even sometimes in excess of giving you all the jurisdictional holidays off. I used to think that the module in high school where we learned about “How The Other Half Lives” was provided as historical context. As an adult I’ve learned that the US continues to be a case study in two halves. A shame, as it needn’t be the way it is. Edit: typo
