About

Truman Day is a commemorative holiday to celebrate the birth of Harry S. Truman, the 33rd President of the United States. It is celebrated on May 8 in Missouri as a state holiday and nationally by the United States Democratic Party. Truman is the only U.S. President to come from Missouri, hence the significance to the state. For Missouri state employees, this is a paid holiday.
