(Springfield, IL) — One of Illinois‘ new laws for the new year will create Barack Obama Day. Lawmakers during the spring approved a plan to make the former president’s birthday, August 4th, a holiday. The banks and state offices will be open, but because most schools have not yet begun, school kids in Illinois will not get the day off school.
