Falling on a weekend in 2027: Juneteenth National Independence Day (Saturday, 19 Jun), Independence Day (Sunday, 4 Jul) and Christmas Day (Saturday, 25 Dec).

Not a public holiday in every state, but in Alabama: Martin Luther King, Jr & Robert E. Lee's Birthday, George Washington & Thomas Jefferson's Birthday, Confederate Memorial Day, Jefferson Davis Birthday and Columbus Day / American Indian Heritage Day / Fraternal Day.

For comparison: in 2027 the number of public holidays ranges from 13 (Massachusetts) to 25 (Texas). Alabama lies in between with 17.

Days marked "observed" are substitute days off when a holiday falls on a weekend. Holidays based on a lunar calendar can shift by a day once the official announcement is made.

Dates are generated from the open-source library python-holidays and automatically cross-checked against Nager.Date and the public Google Calendar holiday calendars; every holiday on a working day must be confirmed by a second source. Official announcements take precedence, especially for holidays that depend on the moon or are declared at short notice.
