Law Day is held every year to celebrate the role of law in our society

Law Day is held on May 1st every year to celebrate the role of law in our society and to cultivate a deeper understanding of the legal profession.

President Dwight Eisenhower established the first Law Day in 1958 to mark the nation's commitment to the rule of law.

In 1961, Congress issued a joint resolution designating May 1 as the official date for celebrating Law Day, which is subsequently codified (U.S. Code, Title 36, Section 113).

Every president since then has issued a Law Day proclamation on May 1 to celebrate the nation's commitment to the rule of law.
