In History:
Congress passed the Martin Luther King holiday legislation in 1983, which was then signed into law by President Ronald Reagan. A compromise moving the holiday from Jan. 15, King's birthday, which was considered too close to Christmas and New Year's, to the third Monday in January helped overcome opposition to the law.  Coincidentally, today is the third Monday in January, as well as being Martin Luther King's birthday.
