I think it's really good to remind people how important is the EU for everyone, through a special and unique day.

A European Day as a common public holiday would certainly raise awareness for all the achievements and freedoms the European Union has brought us Europeans over the last decades which we sometimes - maybe thoughtlessly - simply take for granted.
While I've signed the petition I have to say I'm a bit sad, though, about the few polemic remarks on 'Brussels' and 'those in Brussels': Be assured there are plenty of highly engaged people in Brussels who certainly *do* have the imagination and the sense to grant such a public holiday. I'm quite convinced the real opposition against such a symbolic, uniting day will rather emerge from the national, member state level - in particular from the entourage of authoritarian, nationalist and populist leaders like Viktor Orbán or Jarosław Kaczyński.

Weil ich überzeugter Europäer bin und tatsächlich auch glaube, dass ein Aktionsfeiertag die Gemeinschaft der Menschen in Europa fördern und festigen wird.
Sehr gute Idee!

I strongly feel European and think we need more to identify ourselves on this broad level.
