Celebrate National Lame Duck Day on February 6th, an annual and lighthearted observance. The term "lame duck" has its roots outside of politics, originally referring to individuals or groups of elected officials approaching the end of their term with no intention of seeking reelection. This day pays tribute to and acknowledges those concluding their tenure or elected officials for whom reelection is no longer an option, recognizing their service and transition.
