Eliminating Christmas from the public square is only their (the Leftists) first step. They've already abolished Nativity scenes from Public Property. Next they'll come after the Holiday itself. There's no stopping point for these fanatics.
A line has to be drawn somewhere and I think this is it. See my tagline for further explanation.

Whether it is a PUBLIC holiday is beside the point. It is a RELIGIOUS holiday, and that will remain.

Besides, do you honestly think that they'll get away with abolishing the public holiday? PLEASE! The Unions would go berserk! They want that day off!
