Trump on Juneteenth: US has 'too many non-working holidays'

Former President Donald Trump criticized the number of federal holidays in the U.S., specifically mentioning Juneteenth—the holiday commemorating the end of slavery—as an example of "too many non-working holidays" that he claims cost the country billions. His comments came on the same day as Juneteenth celebrations, which have grown in prominence since becoming a federal holiday in 2021.
