Proclamation 11022 is a ceremonial presidential proclamation issued April 10, 2026, designating April 12, 2026 as a Day of Celebration in honor of Henry Clay, the Kentucky statesman born on that date in 1777. It also directs the White House Office of Administration to rename a specific room in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.
April 12, 2026 is officially designated a Day of Celebration in Henry Clay’s honor, marking what would have been his 249th birthday. Room 208 of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building — historically used as the Secretary of State’s office — is to be renamed the Henry Clay Room. No federal holiday, government closure, or spending is established by this proclamation; the changes are commemorative and administrative in nature.
The renaming directly affects the White House Office of Administration, which is directed to carry out the redesignation of Room 208. The broader public impact is symbolic: the proclamation has no legal obligations, benefits, or requirements for private citizens, businesses, or other government agencies.
