1. Yes, and regular federal workers get the day off.

But it's only them.

While federal government offices may close their doors the days before and after Christmas this year, locations like banks, post offices and private retailers will largely remain open.

U.S. Postal Service offices will be open for retail transactions Dec. 26 and mail will be delivered on that day.

According to the Federal Reserve, banks will follow the typical schedule of being closed on Christmas Day and open for business Dec. 26.

4. Maybe, USPS employees have the option of working their holiday.

Such employees would get both (i) their holiday pay, and (ii) pay for the hours they work.

7. Post offices are open and not affected by his executive order

However Soc Security and other fed offices are closed today

9. The Executive Order applied to Executive Agencies. USPS is an independent agency

Such Executive Orders never apply to the USPS.

10. I believe he declared the 24th to be a holiday.

Perhaps all the federal employees who worked today will be paid time and a half.

12. I thought it was 24th & 26th

13. I seem

to remember that as well, but there was mail service today. Guess whoever the postmaster is overruled trumps declaration.
