An upstate New York congresswoman is making waves. GOP Rep. Claudia Tenney is pushing for President Donald Trump’s birthday to become a federal holiday. She has introduced a bill to merge Flag Day with Trump’s birthday. The proposed holiday would be celebrated every June 14.
Trump’s unmatched legacy
Tenney calls Trump “the most consequential President in modern American history.” She says his achievements demand recognition. From securing the Abraham Accords to delivering historic tax cuts, his impact is undeniable. According to her, he shaped America’s “Golden Age.”
A new holiday for June 14
June 14 already holds significance. President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed it as Flag Day in 1916. Congress officially established the holiday in 1949. Trump was born on June 14, 1946, making the date a perfect fit for a dual celebration.
Tenney believes this move will cement Trump’s contributions. “Just as George Washington’s birthday is a federal holiday, Trump’s should be too,” she says. She argues that combining Flag Day and Trump’s birthday will honor both the former president and the American flag forever.
How Trump celebrates his birthday
Trump usually spends his birthday in style. He often hosts private celebrations at his Mar-a-Lago estate or Bedminster golf club. Close friends, family, and political allies attend. His birthday messages flood social media, with supporters sharing well-wishes. Sometimes, he marks the occasion with rallies, reinforcing his connection with his base. His birthdays are never quiet—they are grand, patriotic, and filled with admiration from his supporters.
Trump’s influence on America
“No modern president has been more pivotal,” Tenney insists. She highlights his leadership during times of turmoil. She says his presidency reshaped America at home and abroad. As the 45th and 47th president, he deserves a permanent place in history.
Tenney was first elected to Congress in 2016. Since then, she has been a staunch Trump supporter. Her proposal is bound to spark debate. Will America embrace a Trump holiday?
