President Joe Biden declared Jan. 9 a National Day of Mourning for former President Jimmy Carter in an executive order. It is the same day that Carter’s official state funeral will be held.
The order did not declare the day a holiday, but still, there will be closures that may affect how business is done. It mostly affects federal agencies, but check your local businesses for their operating hours.
