 Dear CHCOs and Deputy CHCOs,
As the Nation mourns the loss of President James Earl Carter, Jr., President Joseph R. Biden has taken official action to allow Federal employees to join their fellow citizens in remembering our thirty-ninth President of the United States. The President has issued an Executive order to close Federal offices and excuse all Federal employees from duty for the scheduled workday on Thursday, January 9, 2025, except those who, in the judgment of the head of the agency, cannot be excused for reasons of national security, defense, or other essential public business.
Today the U.S. Office of Personnel Management issued Compensation Policy Memorandum (CPM) 2024-28 titled, “National Day of Mourning for President James Earl Carter, Jr.; Federal Government Closure on Thursday, January 9, 2025” to provide guidance on the President’s Executive order.
Agency headquarters-level human resources offices may contact Pay, Leave, and Workforce Flexibilities at OPM at leavepolicy@opm.gov. Employees should contact their agency human resources or payroll office for further information on this memorandum.
All the best!
CHCO Council
