Election Day would be added to Utah's official list of legal state holidays under this bill, which designates the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November—the date of general elections—as a recognized holiday alongside days like Independence Day, Labor Day, and Thanksgiving. This designation would take effect May 6, 2026, and the bill makes only minor technical adjustments to the numbering of the existing holiday list to accommodate the addition.
