The USA has many election days because of many levels of government. The
most important one is Presidential Election Day, which is held every four

The traditional Christian holidays are:
- Christmas Day, the feast of the birth of Jesus,
- Easter, the feast of the Resurrection of Jesus,
- New Year's Day (1.1.)
- Valentine's Day (14 February), when you give gifts to people you love
Many ethnic groups like the Jews and the Moslems, celebrate their own
observances, too, but these are often no official holidays for all
Americans.
Not all Americans, like hospital workers, policemen or fire fighters are
free to celebrate holidays. But they often take their vacations in the
summer months.
