Officially, César Chávez Day is observed in the United States on March 31 each year. It celebrates the birthday of César Estrada Chávez and it serves as a tribute to the man's commitment to social justice and respect for human dignity.
However, it's not a very well observed holiday and best I could tell only the courts, DMV and most libraries were closed - in his honor.
The efforts by Cesar E. Chavez National Holiday organization to make the day a national holiday - so far - do not seem to be catching on.
