It doesn’t mention Jewish holidays.

My town has had 2 Jewish holidays off since the 70s——apparently Baltimore doesn’t, so they made the right
decision.

You would be wrong about that. We’ve all had Jewish days off for ages...and Baltimore Co. has a heavy Jewish pop. I’d say more than Moslems are now.

Thus the real reason for having days off - not to “recognize” or “honor”, but because too many people would not show up. It’s a practical thing.
