Is Sept. 11 a holiday?

September 11th has not been recognized as an official holiday, but it has been designated as "Patriot Day" every year.

The White House has declared Monday as Patriot Day and National Day of Service and Remembrance.

"Today we remember all the heroes who were forged in the hours, days, and years that followed that terrible morning of September 11, 2001 — ordinary Americans who, amidst the terror, smoke, and flames, demonstrated extraordinary courage and selflessness.," the proclamation reads. "Together, their bravery helped prove to our Nation and the world that what those terrorists most hoped to wound could never be broken: the character of our Nation."
