This bill establishes a new state holiday, known as "Daniel Webster Day," to be observed annually on January 18. The legislation amends RSA 4 by adding a new section, 4:13-ee, which mandates the governor to issue a proclamation each year to encourage proper observance of the day. The holiday is intended to honor the life and contributions of Daniel Webster, a prominent figure in New Hampshire's history, who served as a lawyer, U.S. Representative, U.S. Senator, Secretary of State, and a respected orator. Schools are encouraged to engage in educational activities to commemorate the day, and the New Hampshire Senate is invited to read Webster's famous "Second Reply to Hayne" speech into the record annually.

The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language to formalize the observance of Daniel Webster Day. The act will take effect 60 days after its passage, ensuring that the state holiday is recognized and celebrated in the near future.
