WASHINGTON – All U.S. Postal Service offices will be closed on Thursday, January 9th to honor former president Jimmy Carter.
The closure is part of an observance following the passing of the 39th president, who died on December 29th, 2024, at the age of 100.
The decision came after President Joe Biden announced a National Day of Mourning and a one-day closure of federal agencies and departments. January 9th will serve as a day of reflection on Carter’s contributions to public service, peace and humanitarian efforts.
