Original Note:
President Joe Biden has not renamed Easter. Transgender Day of Visibility has been on March 31st every year since 2009. Easter changes dates each year and happens to land on March 31st this year. Therefore, both Easter Sunday and TDOV share the same date in 2024. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2024/03/29/a-proclamation-on-transgender-day-of-visibility-2024/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Transgender_Day_of_Visibility https://www.npr.org/2024/03/30/1241589753/transgender-day-of-visibility-rachel-crandall-crocker https://apnews.com/article/transgender-day-visibility-gender-affirming-0858d8f42ece877cfad27488a4ad83dd https://www.reuters.com/fact-check/transgender-day-visibility-falls-annually-march-31-not-always-easter-2024-03-29/ https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/the-history-behind-international-transgender-day-of-visibility https://www.motherjones.com/mojo-wire/2024/03/trans-day-of-visibility-easter-the-right-blames-biden-thanksgivukkah/
