Martin Luther King III asked President-elect Donald Trump to unify the United States, specifically calling on the incoming president to talk to “everybody” on both sides of the political aisle. Trump’s inauguration on Monday will also fall on Martin Luther King Jr.

Though the holiday is young, this will only be the 25th year that all 50 states recognize it together. Here's what's open and closed on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Trump had made a similar promise during his 2017 to 2021 term, and he did release some documents related to JFK's 1963 murder. However, he later kept a significant chunk of documents under wraps, citing national security concerns following pressure from CIA and FBI.

Trump’s decision to release these files comes in the wake of strong advocacy from Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the nephew of RFK, who has long pushed for the declassification of documents related to his uncle’s assassination.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day on January 20 coincides with Trump's inauguration. Government offices, postal services, and financial institutions will be closed, but retailers like Costco, Walmart, and Target will remain open.

For residents affected by recent wildfires, L.A. Sanitation and Environment maintains its 24-hour customer service line throughout the holiday. Public transportation keeps rolling, with Metro and Metrolink sticking to their standard schedules.

Many public institutions will close for Martin Luther King Jr. Day Monday, while some private businesses will remain open. Here's what to know.
