Make Diwali a State Holiday in Massachusetts, just like in Pennsylvania!


Make Diwali a State Holiday in Massachusetts, just like in Pennsylvania!
The Issue
Diwali, the Festival of Lights, is one of the most important holidays for millions of Indian Americans, symbolizing the victory of light over darkness and good over evil.
While states like Pennsylvania have already recognized this vibrant celebration by making it an official holiday, it’s time for Massachusetts to do the same!
Our state is home to a large and growing Indian American community that enriches our culture and economy. Recognizing Diwali as a state holiday would promote inclusivity and acknowledge the contributions of our South Asian neighbors.
💡 Let’s come together to ask our lawmakers to make Diwali a state holiday, just like Pennsylvania!
📢 Tell your representatives it’s time for Massachusetts to take this important step toward diversity and cultural recognition.
