Ascension Thursday is one of six holy days of obligation (not counting all Sundays) in the United States, although most dioceses have now transferred it to the following Sunday. Canon Law has relegated the holy days to local bishops or provincial synodal decision. There are actually, as of 1993, only seven states in the U.S. that still celebrate the Ascension on Thursday rather than the following Sunday. I was surprised to find that Hawaii and Canada have only two holy days of obligation, Christmas and the Immaculate Conception for the former, and Christmas and the solemnity of the Mother of God (January 1) for the latter.
