“Dear PoPville,
Feds get Christmas Eve and day after Christmas. DC announces a 2pm closure and reopen on Friday and says “please enjoy the extra time with your loved ones and celebrate the season”
That’s about 3 hours extra time for most people.”
Announcement from Department of Human Resources:
“I hope you have a Merry Christmas and happy holidays! Thank you for all you do, every day, to deliver for our community and keep Washington, DC the best city in the world. You rise to every challenge, you exemplify our DC values, and you never, ever give up.
In recognition of your hard work, Mayor Bowser has authorized District Government to close at 2:00 p.m. tomorrow, Wednesday, December 24th. The government will remain closed on Christmas Day and reopen on Friday December 26th. Please enjoy the extra time with your loved ones and celebrate the season.
For additional information concerning the Issuance , please contact your agency Human Resources Advisor for support.
This year we have celebrated meaningful wins and navigated challenges with resilience and teamwork. As we continue to lean into the holiday season, I hope you find time to rest, recharge, and enjoy the moments that matter. With renewed energy, we will be ready to run through the tape in 2026
Happy Holidays”
