The Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. National Holiday Law (H.R. 3706) was authored and sponsored by The Honorable Katie Hall, Indiana’s First African-American to serve in the United States House of Representatives. Ronald Reagan, 40th President of the United States of America signed H.R. 3706, into federal law on November 2, 1983, The Rose Garden, The White House, Washington, D.C.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. is the only African-American in the history of the United States Congress to be honored with a national holiday. U.S. Representative Hall’s legislation designated the third Monday in January in which to recognize Dr. King.

The Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. National Holiday was first observed in January 1986.

The Katie Hall Educational Foundation, Inc., publisher of the greeting cards and postcard, invites the public to join them in remembering the life and legacies of United States Representative Katie Hall (D-IN)(circa 1983) and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., by purchasing your very own Dr. MLK, Jr. National Holiday greeting cards.

The Katie Hall Educational Foundation, Inc. along with American Greetings and Hallmark Cards are one of the few publishers of Dr. MLK, Jr. National Holiday greeting cards in the nation. However, the Katie Hall Educational Foundation, Inc. is the only known publisher in America of a postcard designed exclusively for the Dr. MLK, Jr. National Holiday Observance.

The greeting cards and postcard are distributed by Junifer Hall Limited, Gary, Indiana.
