Independence Day falls on Saturday, July 4, 2026 and Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday, January 18, 2027, which is 198 days later — 28 weeks and 2 days, or 141 business days counting Monday to Friday only. The first day is not counted and the last one is, the same way a calendar counts a stay. Both dates are fixed, so the gap is the same every year apart from leap-year shifts in the weekdays.
