National Law Day
About this event
In the United States, Law Day recognizes the role of law in the foundation of our country and to recognize its importance for society.
The American Bar Association introduced the idea for Law Day in 1957 as a day to encourage all Americans to reflect on the personal rights and liberties that are enjoyed and exercised daily.
Law Day has been criticized as being intended to reduce the influence of May Day (or International Workers' Day), a holiday that originated with a general strike on May 1, 1886 in the campaign for the eight-hour day in the United States, which culminated in the Haymarket affair in Chicago. The intent the holiday to reduce worker influence was explicitly noted by President Donald Trump during his 2025 Law Day proclamation.
It has became an international day in support of American workers who were being subjected to brutal violence and judicial punishment.
