Would it be possible to have all the states celebrate it on ONE day?

Sort of like the federal government standardizing all the nations holidays?

No, I sorta like the idea of the individual states choosing when and why they want to have a holiday.

Nahhh nothing like that.
My thinking was that w/one date it would be easier to organize celebrations et. al.

I understand why you’re against the idea, and in retrospect the different dates for different states exemplifies the idea of the Confederacy.

I could, but won’t, say it’s just one time for one special purpose,it won’t happen again, I won’t say it because once it starts where does it end.
