May Day and Law Day
Date of Celebration : 1st. MAY
On May 1st the
United States celebrate Law Day. May Day is also celebrated as
the Law Day. The day that teaches you to be guided by the
statutes of state law.
The Law Day is meant to reflect on the role of law in the
foundation of the country and to recognize its importance for
society. Law Day was first proposed in the 50's by the American
Bar Association, and Dwight D. Eisenhower proclaimed May 1st Law
Day in 1958. In contrast, most Countries celebrate May Day on
the same date, as it is designated International Workers Day.
Law day, along with Loyalty Day, was created to discourage
celebration of May Day, a perceived communist holiday. |
