Some alternatives that Reagan proposed were:

  • Cancelling out the federal paid leave days after Christmas and New Year.
  • Using the money the federal government would pay workers on MLK Day for a cause Dr. King supported.
<h3 /><h3>Reagan and Martin Luther King Day </h3>
  • Reagan was concerned about having a federal holiday in honor of Martin Luther King.
  • He worried that the government would lose money from having to pay employees on a day when an important figure would be celebrated as this was not done much before.

Reagan's administration then offered the above alternatives but pressure on him led him to approving the federal holiday that is now Martin Luther King Day.
