As a way to stimulate the economy for the holiday season, President Roosevelt attempted to move Thanksgiving to the third Thursday in November.
The final Thursday in November was proclaimed a national day of gratitude by Roosevelt, following Lincoln's example. To aid companies still struggling under the impact of the Great Depression, President Roosevelt shifted Thanksgiving to the third Thursday in November, extending the holiday shopping season.
After making the unpopular proclamation twice more in the following two years, Roosevelt finally recognized his error on November 26, 1941, and he signed a bill into law designating the fourth Thursday of November as the official national holiday of Thanksgiving Day.
