President Joe Biden has declared January 9, 2025 a national day of mourning following the death of former President Jimmy Carter. A national day of mourning operates like a federal holiday, but in this instance a complete closing of all government operations isn’t required. The following organizations will be closed on January 9:
- The New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq (Bond markets will be open, but will close at 2:00 pm EST.)
- The United States Postal Service
- Federal offices
The Post and Computer Center in Freshfields Village will be open on Thursday.
