Santa Clara County has officially declared Juneteenth a paid holiday for county workers.
Following months of renewed scrutiny of systemic racism in the Bay Area and nationwide, the Board of Supervisors unanimously voted Tuesday to deem June 19th as “Juneteenth Day” to commemorate the end of slavery in the United States and honor African American history, allowing workers to take the day off.
