The *only* problem I have with this is that regardless of holiday status, there are ALWAYS people working. Witness recent moves to retail being open on Thanksgiving & Christmas. And the people who work are almost always low-wage workers with little say in the matter.

Yes! Also federal holidays come with things like reduced bus service, closures of subsidized childcare ect. Making election day a federal holiday will further reduce working poor voter participation.

Or, vote by mail as it's done in Oregon since 1987. Drop your ballot off on your way to or from work.pic.twitter.com/mKIdKP2iEC

This is the right answer. Fewest barriers to participation. Least economic impact. Best option for voters to research issues before filling out that little circle. I love opening up my laptop and voter’s guide with a cup of coffee and spending the morning voting at home.
